Completing the offer, the supply of lubricants, batteries, wheels, equipment and aftermarket products is readily available to the Customer.

The ATEX explosion proof transformation of forklift trucks is necessary in environments where they can be a triggering factor for explosions due to substances in the air. In certain product sectors, especially in the Chemical-Pharmaceutical sector and in the Food industry, forklift trucks may need to operate in production areas and warehouses where there are inflammable materials in the form of gas, vapour or mist or in the presence of combustible dusts. The mix of such substances, in certain concentrations, may create an explosive atmosphere and spread through the inflammable mix, if ignition occurs. A forklift truck could turn out to be a potential source of ignition.

The weight of a load often plays an essential role in handling and logistics operations. CLS supplies forklift weighing systems for industry and for all counterbalanced trucks and warehouse machines. With the help of these devices, you can reduce the time needed for weighing loads and also increase accuracy: process times decrease, while also improving efficiency and productivity. Forklift weighing systems can be classified based on the type of measuring sensor: load cells, hydraulic pressure transducers and direct strain measurement.

The Italian Government’s Agreement with the Regions that came into force on 12 March 2013 specified that operators of self-propelled forklift trucks with the driver on board require a special qualification in order to perform their duties.

CLS offers a service providing approval of the forklift road requirements of CVS forklift trucks and MAFI industrial and port tractors for use on public roads. CLS supports its customers in meeting all forklift road rules by following the entire vehicle registration procedure, from submitting the application for the test to the CPA (Italian Vehicle Test Centre) to preparing the vehicle and carrying out the test at the CPA to obtain the special yellow number plate for operating machines.

With a long-standing expertise gained in almost 70 years of history, CLS offers Customers its experience and advice through a flexible forklift truck rental service providing timely, efficient and customised solutions.
