Advantages of electric forklifts
An electric forklift is the best choice for use in warehouses because there are no harmful emissions for workers and no noise when operating. In warehouses with a lot of blind spots and corners, if the noise from equipment is too loud, workers will not be able to hear warnings and will get distracted while moving. Electric forklifts are also compact and easy to move in small, narrow spaces. Investment costs will be saved in the long term, and the maintenance process is simple.
MiMA electric forklifts are suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises
In the current market of forklift, European electric forklifts are always leading in the innovation of quality and convenience for customers, even though the initial investment costs are often very high. For small and medium-sized enterprises with few working shifts (8 hours per shift), the selection of European branded forklifts incurs a lot of costs, while their performance and utilities are not fully utilized.
MiMA develops a variety of forklift models
MiMA electric forklifts are equipped with American Curtis circuit boards, German Hepu technology engines, Wannan lift engines, etc. and top-quality accessories. Currently, MiMA forklifts are assembled at a large factory near the city of Shanghai, making the cost of production very competitive. For enterprises which have 1-2 shifts (8-16 hours) working in the warehouse with moderate usage need, MiMA electric forklift is a reasonable investment: low investment costs, fast capital recovery, rapid economic efficiency. MiMA electric forklifts are backed by a 2-year warranty ( or 2000 hours) and preferential maintenance services, ensuring that they are always ready to work at customers’ warehouse.
With 25 years of establishment and development, MiMA is constantly innovating to improve product quality, increasing productivity and providing customers with the best experience when using MiMA electric forklifts. MiMA electric forklifts have been exported worldwide, being one of those trusted by European enterprises - one of the most demanding and sophisticated markets in the world.

Comparison between electric and internal combustion engine forklifts
Enterprises should choose electric forklifts for the following reasons:
-
Performance - some pros and cons
Diesel forklifts have an advantage over electric forklifts by providing continuous power. Electric forklifts are more advantageous because there are fewer moving parts, so there is no engine noise. They produce only ¼ the amount of noise as produced by diesel forklifts. If there is only 1 diesel forklift working in the warehouse, the noise is not significant, but if there are 4-5 diesel forklifts working in the warehouse at the same time, they will create serious noise pollution.
-
Comparison of costs
The initial cost for an electric forklift can be 30-40% the price of an equivalent internal combustion engine forklift. However, during the course of use, the costs of lubricants, gas and maintenance for an internal combustion engine forklift are much higher. Therefore, electric forklifts are more economical in terms of cost in the long term.
-
Environmental impact
Electric forklift is the ideal choice for ensuring the safety, hygiene in the warehouse and working environment. Electric forklifts do not generate any carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide emissions; therefore, air in the warehouse will be less polluted. Especially for warehouses with strict requirements such as pharmaceutical, food and explosive products warehouse, electric forklift is the ultimate choice. The reduction of emissions will also help ensure the safety of goods and improving the working environment for workers, which helps reduce the cost tremendously compared to installing the costly HAVC (Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning) system.
Forklifts using internal combustion engine (diesel and gas) require maintenance and refills of solvents such as engine oil, transmission oil and filters - solvents and accessories are costly and harmful to the environment if they are not properly handled.

So the cost of operating a gas forklift is 9 times, a diesel forklift is 5 times higher than that of an electric forklift of the same type calculated in one year. This is not to mention electric forklifts have lower maintenance costs, providing higher productivity and extended life cycle. Electric forklifts do not emit carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide which cause pollution, create less noise and improve the overall working environment.
