// Our solutions

aisle master

Combilift provides versatile articulated forklifts designed to optimise storage. These forklifts expertly navigate narrow aisles, maximising space for paper reels, pallets, and packing materials while ensuring safe and efficient handling. With the ability to perform both indoor and outdoor tasks, Combilift forklifts boost productivity and streamline material flow across operations.

COMBI-CS

Safety is a top priority and Combilift’s forklifts are specifically designed with this in mind. The multi-position tiller allows for push-button rotation of the rear wheel, enabling operators to stay in the safest position while placing and picking in narrow aisles. This thoughtful design ensures secure handling of materials, minimising accident risk and protecting products during every stage of the handling process.

COMBI-WR

The Combilift walkie reach stacker, winner of the FLTA Award for Ergonomics 2014, operates efficiently in very narrow aisles, with the ability to work in spaces as tight as 2 metres, pallet to pallet. This exceptional manoeuvrability increases storage capacity while enabling safe and precise handling of materials in compact areas, ensuring operations remain efficient & compliant with industry standards.

Printing and packaging facilities handle a wide variety of loads, including paper reels, packaging materials, finished goods and palletised stock. Combilift solutions offer capacities ranging from 2,200lbs to 35,000lbs depending on the model, making them suitable for both light-duty warehouse tasks and heavier production applications. Selecting the correct forklift capacity helps improve throughput while reducing product damage.

Combilift offers Aisle Master articulated forklifts, Combi-CS pedestrian stackers, Combi-WR/WR4 warehouse trucks and powered pallet trucks. These solutions are designed to operate efficiently in narrow aisles while handling pallets, paper reels and packaging materials safely. Their compact design helps maximise warehouse space and improve material flow.

Electric forklifts are often preferred in printing and packaging facilities due to quieter operation and suitability for indoor environments. LPG models offer greater flexibility where indoor and outdoor use is required, while selected diesel models can support heavier-duty applications. Combilift provides electric, LPG and diesel-powered solutions to meet varying operational requirements.

Battery runtime depends on operating hours, travel distances and the number of load cycles completed during a shift. Combilift electric forklifts and warehouse trucks are designed to support demanding printing and packaging operations throughout a standard working day. Effective battery charging and maintenance programmes help maximise uptime and reduce operating costs.

Efficient warehouse storage requires equipment capable of reaching multiple rack levels. Combi-CS stackers offer lift heights of approximately 2.5 metres, while other Combilift warehouse solutions provide higher lift configurations depending on the model selected. This enables businesses to maximise vertical storage capacity and improve warehouse efficiency.

Paper reels and finished packaging products are often damage-sensitive and require careful handling. Combilift equipment features multi-position tillers, high-visibility operator positions and precise narrow-aisle control. These safety features help improve manoeuvrability, reduce product damage and provide greater control when transporting valuable inventory.

Combilift forklifts can be configured with standard forks, pallet-handling options and reel-handling configurations where required. These attachments help improve load stability and handling efficiency when moving paper rolls, packaging materials and finished products through warehouse and production environments.

Yes. Many printing and packaging businesses require stock transfers between warehouses, production areas and loading bays. Combilift solutions support indoor operations and outdoor transfers where appropriate, providing flexibility without compromising productivity or safety.

Warehouse space is often at a premium due to high stock volumes and fast-moving inventory. Combilift’s narrow-aisle forklifts allow operators to work efficiently in tighter spaces, enabling more pallet locations within the same footprint. This helps improve storage density and maximise warehouse utilisation.

Printing and packaging operations frequently handle damage-sensitive paper reels, packaging materials and finished goods while maintaining high throughput requirements. Combilift solutions address these challenges through precise handling, excellent visibility and efficient narrow-aisle operation. This helps improve productivity, protect inventory and optimise warehouse performance.
