Development of Liquefied Gas Forklifts In the late 1960s and early 1970s, due to the shortage of international crude oil supply, major Western industrial countries had to find new energy sources to replace crude oil. Cleaner and more economical liquefied gas was researched and developed at this time, becoming a new generation of vehicle fuel to replace gasoline and diesel. At the same time, forklifts using liquefied gas as fuel have also developed accordingly. Developed countries and regions such as Europe and the United States have vigorously promoted the use of liquefied gas forklifts to meet the needs for carbon emissions, occupational health and efficient corporate operations. In recent years, liquefied gas forklifts have continued to expand their market share in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, and their sales have greatly surpassed diesel forklifts and electric forklifts.

Compared to diesel forklifts:

Liquefied gas has an absolute advantage over diesel in terms of fuel cost.

Liquefied gas forklifts are suitable for working indoors and outdoors, even in working environments with particularly high environmental requirements.

Unlike diesel, liquefied gas does not release pollutants during the vaporization process, effectively extending engine life.

There are almost no harmful particles emitted during the operation of liquefied gas forklifts, thus ensuring the health of workshop workers. The emission of a large number of harmful particles in the exhaust of diesel forklifts seriously affects the respiratory health of workers.

The engine of the liquefied gas forklift has small vibration amplitude and low noise, which protects the hearing of workers.

Compared with electric forklift:

Due to the high price of industrial electricity and battery purchase, the maintenance cost of electric forklifts is high, and liquefied gas forklifts can save more usage costs than electric forklifts.

Liquefied gas forklifts can always maintain power even when they are low on fuel. The power of electric forklifts will decrease as the power decreases.

Liquefied gas forklifts can drive on uneven ground or steep slopes.

The carbon emissions of liquefied gas forklifts during the entire product life cycle, that is, the "carbon footprint" are much smaller than those of electric forklifts.

Liquefied gas forklifts can quickly and easily change fuel, while electric forklifts require 8 hours of charging time and 8 hours of battery cooling time.

Electric forklift battery manufacturers have seriously affected the local ecological environment and human health. There have been many "blood lead" incidents in China caused by illegal discharge of pollutants by battery companies.

Liquefied gas forklifts can work at temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius.
