If you need additional information, please get in touch.
Plastics manufacturers often handle everything from lightweight plastic sheets and rolls to bulky moulded products and raw material pallets. Combilift solutions offer lifting capacities from 2,000kg to 25,000kg, providing the flexibility needed for a wide range of plastics handling applications. Choosing the correct capacity helps improve productivity, reduce product damage and streamline warehouse operations.
The plastics sector benefits from specialised equipment designed to handle long, bulky and irregular loads. Combilift offers the C-Series multidirectional forklift, Combi-CB, Combi-MR, Combi-GT/ST and Combi-WR4. These solutions help operators safely transport plastic sheets, rolls and moulded components while maximising manoeuvrability in tight storage environments.
The ideal power source depends on the application. Electric forklifts are well suited to indoor plastics manufacturing facilities, while LPG models offer versatility across mixed-use environments. Diesel forklifts remain a practical option for outdoor operations. Combilift provides electric, LPG and diesel-powered plastics handling solutions to suit varying operational requirements.
Battery runtime depends on load sizes, travel distances and operating hours. Combilift electric forklifts are designed to support demanding plastics manufacturing and warehouse environments throughout a typical shift. Effective charging schedules and battery management systems help maximise uptime, reduce operational costs and improve overall material handling efficiency.
Efficient warehouse storage is essential when handling plastic sheets, tubing, rolls and finished products. Combilift solutions offer lift heights of up to 12 metres, enabling businesses to fully utilise vertical storage space. Higher lift capabilities help maximise storage density while maintaining safe access to products and raw materials.
Plastic products can be bulky, lightweight and damage-sensitive, requiring precise handling. Combilift equipment incorporates 360-degree steering, compact design features and ergonomic pedestrian operation to improve operator control and visibility. These features help reduce product damage, improve safety and ensure smoother movement through production and warehouse environments.
Handling large plastic sheets, rolls and extrusions often requires specialised load support. Combilift equipment can be fitted with standard forks, long-load platforms and dedicated load supports. These attachments improve load stability and help operators safely transport bulky or awkward plastics products with greater efficiency.
Yes. Plastics manufacturers frequently transfer materials between production facilities, warehouses and external storage areas. Combilift forklifts are designed for both indoor and outdoor operation, providing operational flexibility while maintaining efficient material flow throughout the supply chain.
Plastic sheets, pipes and moulded products can consume significant storage space. Combilift multidirectional forklifts allow operators to work in narrower aisles while handling long loads safely. This helps increase storage density, improve stock accessibility and maximise the use of available warehouse capacity.
The plastics industry often handles bulky, lightweight, irregular and fragile products that can be difficult to store and transport safely. Combilift solutions are specifically designed to address these challenges through multidirectional manoeuvrability, specialised load support and efficient warehouse handling. This helps minimise product damage while improving productivity and storage performance.
