How is the handling market in France evolving?
The sales of material handling equipment follow perfectly the evolution of the economic situation of a country.
Traditionally, warehousing equipment is dedicated to logistics and trade, and front-end forklifts are more dedicated to industry and distribution.
The new anti-pollution standards issued by the EU for 2020 require manufacturers of handling equipment to revise all or part of the design of equipment, especially for diesel-powered forklifts.
