By KDM Hire Limited in Industry News

In a significant stride towards enhancing operational efficiency and embracing sustainability, Keystone Lintels has recently partnered with KDM Hire, delivering a cutting-edge solution for their warehouse needs. This collaboration marks a pivotal step in Keystone’s journey towards a greener and more efficient future.

Innovative Solutions for Modern Challenges

Understanding the evolving demands of warehouse management and the increasing focus on environmental responsibility, Keystone reached out to KDM Hire and with technical assistance from local manufacturer Combilift, we sourced a solution that could address both efficiency and sustainability. Meeting the challenge head-on, KDM Hire provided a tailored solution with the supply of three innovative Combi-CBE Multi Directional Forklifts.

Why Combi-CBE Forklifts?

Part of our Go Green category, the Combi-CBE forklifts, known for their versatility and eco-friendliness, are a perfect match for Keystone’s requirements. These electric-powered forklifts are designed for the safe, space-saving, and productive handling of long and bulky loads, making them ideal for Keystone’s diverse warehousing needs.

Key features of the Combi-CBE forklifts include:

Technical Assistance from Combilift

David Vuagniaux of Combilift visited Keystone’s site to gain a comprehensive understanding of their operational requirements, including the nature of Keystone’s long products and the specific manoeuvrability challenges within their warehouse. This enabled KDM Hire and Combilift to identify the precise features needed to enhance their operations.

The design and build process saw Combilift’s skilled designers and engineers bring the bespoke solution to life with their state-of-the-art production lines.

Furthermore, Keystone will benefit from ongoing support, with access to Combilift’s and KDM Hire’s after-sales team, ensuring they continue to maximise the efficiency and effectiveness of their tailored material handling solution.

Contract Hire

A strategic choice opting for a contract hire arrangement, Keystone benefits from the flexibility and cost-effectiveness of using these advanced machines without the need for outright purchase. This approach not only aligns with their financial strategy but also ensures they have access to the latest technology without the long-term commitment of ownership.

Under the contract hire agreement, Keystone’s monthly rental covers all maintenance and routine servicing, along with numerous additional benefits.

Conclusion

KDM Hire’s provision of the Combi-CBE Multi Directional Forklifts to Keystone is more than just a business solution; it’s a step towards a more efficient, sustainable future. This partnership highlights KDM Hire’s commitment to offering innovative, eco-friendly solutions tailored to our clients’ unique needs.
