UgoWork’s lithium-ion batteries approved for integration with KION material handling equipment

Mar 31, 2026

UgoWork™, a lithium-ion energy solutions provider specializing in the material handling industry, announced today that its lithium-ion battery solutions have been formally approved for use in Linde material handling equipment, part of the global KION Group and one of the world's leading manufacturers for forklift trucks and warehouse equipment, and a solutions and service provider for intralogistics. The company is represented in all major regions around the world through a service network spanning more than 100 countries.

This approval allows Linde customers to integrate UgoWork’s UL listed energy solutions alongside KION’s existing battery offering, giving its customers flexibility in choosing the forklift power system that best supports their operational objectives. For material handling teams running multiple shifts and in cold/hot environments, the combination offers unprecedented throughput levels and extends the lifespan of battery investments.

“Linde has a long-standing reputation for building robust, precision-engineered lift trucks, and our energy solutions are designed to complement that standard,” said David Mucciacciaro, CEO of UgoWork. “This approval means Linde customers can count on our leading lithium-ion battery solutions that support the performance of their fleet while offering a clear path to efficiency, safety, and long-term cost control. We’re very proud to be part of an energy ecosystem that lets customers choose which OEM solution works best for them.”

Following the recent appointment of its new CEO—an American leader based in the Midwest—UgoWork continues to accelerate its expansion across North America.
