Ardagh Glass Packaging replaces diesel forklift trucks with electric models

Four electric forklift trucks have replaced diesel forklifts at the Ardagh Glass Packaging facility in Bad Munder, Germany.

For the first time in AGP- Europe’s operation, lithium iron phosphate forklifts, with a lifting capacity of five tons, are being used to load the facility’s glass containers.

The forklift trucks run on a fast-charging battery and require little maintenance, which results in reduced loading times as well as reduced carbon emissions.
