In the warehouses and manufacturing units across the UK, especially in the West Midlands, forklifts play a pivotal role. Powering these essential machines are batteries and the choice of battery can significantly impact efficiency, costs and sustainability.
At WB Powersource, located in West Bromwich, we've been at the forefront of this evolution since the early 1980s, here's a glimpse into the journey of forklift batteries.
