Keyo Agricultural Services has added 12 Combi-RT forklifts to support poultry handling at Hook 2 Sisters’ Foxhills plant.

Combilift’s wide range of multidirectional forklifts has enabled Kerschbaum-Haus GmbH a 120-year-old timber manufacturer in Bavaria to streamline the handling of varied timber products across its site.

Now, five customised Combilift models, with capacities from 3 to 14 tonnes, support daily operations, enhancing safety and efficiency.

Their JCB axle and automatic locking differential ensure reliable traction, even in wet conditions.
