Why Choose Bendi Over Standard Forklifts?

Thanks to Bendi’s patented articulated forklift truck system, aisle performance far surpasses that of conventional trucks.

The innovative 220° rotation allows for aisles as small as 1800mm, maximising space efficiency and boosting storage capacity. This translates to improved workflow and reduced operating costs.
A Bendi narrow aisle or articulated forklift gives you room to expand production areas and can even be a cost-effective alternative to a costly building extension or relocation.
Bendi’s articulated forklift design delivers exceptional performance both indoors and out. You can easily load and unload trailers on concrete or uneven yards, then drive straight into the warehouse to place pallets into racking up to 12.5m– no guidance systems or expensive super flat floors required.
With its intuitive, driver-friendly operation, the Bendi forklift delivers unmatched productivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Bendi articulated forklifts and warehouse optimization

What is a high reach Bendi forklift used for?

A high reach forklift is designed to lift and store goods at greater heights while operating in tight spaces. These forklifts are commonly used in warehouses, cold storage facilities and distribution centres to improve storage capacity and efficiency.

What makes an articulated forklift different from a standard forklift?

An articulated forklift has a unique joint design that allows the mast to pivot, giving it superior manoeuvrability in narrow aisles. Unlike conventional forklifts that require wider spaces to turn, a Bendi articulated forklift works efficiently in aisles as small as 1.8 metres, helping you gain up to 50% more warehouse space.

Do you offer forklift hire and maintenance across Australia?

Yes, Bendi Australia provides comprehensive electric forklift hire, maintenance and repair services nationwide. Our trained technicians offer prompt on-site service, including a two-hour response time in metropolitan areas. We also have genuine parts in stock across all states, eliminating the hassle of lengthy delivery times.

Can a Bendi forklift operate outdoors?

Yes, the Bendi articulated forklift is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications. It can load and unload trailers on rough or unpaved surfaces, then transition directly into warehouse operations. This versatility eliminates the need for multiple machines, saving time and operational costs.
