Denmark's only manufacturer of fork-lift trucks has a positive view of the future and is now taking the next step towards the realisation of the strategic business plan 1-11 by intensifying the efforts within product and market development. The first visible result in 2009 is the introduction of a newly developed pallet fork-lift truck. A fork-lift truck which complies with the high Nordic market requirements.

With the launch of DanTruck 3000 Power, DanTruck A/S incorporates its knowhow of many years from the well-known quality programme of incredibly powerful fork-lift trucks into a new and more lightweight series designed for palletized goods. The new fork-lift trucks have been developed to comply with the high environmental and ergonomics requirements of the Nordic market and they are even available at a very competitive price.

Positive view of the future
The optimism in DanTruck A/S is not only based on the expansion of the product programme with the new truck series. At the moment, the company is preparing a general offensive strategy and a considerable expansion of the product range as well as the sale of total solutions in the years to come.

- We offer the right market adopted fork-lift trucks as standard and we are thus capable of supplying an optimal technical solution with a very attractive operating economy, says Niels Lauritzen, Managing Director of DanTruck A/S and he continues:

- One of the strong points of the new fork-lift truck is its comprehensive standard equipment and wide option range. When you combine this with a sound operating economy also for these fork-lift types, we expect a positive reception of this latest product.

Guaranteed bargain
The new DanTruck 3000 Power has been through a number of tests and the results are so convincing that DanTruck A/S provides a three-year factory guarantee without hesitation.

- In addition to the guarantee, we offer a very attractive price at the beginning of 2009, explains Niels Lauritzen and he emphasises that the new series is not a replacement of the agency agreement for Nissan fork-lift trucks but it is, on the contrary, a really good supplement.

The new programme is launched both as diesel and gas fork-lifts which range from 2 tons to 3.5 tons. Later in the year, the programme is expanded to include electrical models of the same high quality.
