What type of telehandler is best for lifting heavy components inside a UK manufacturing plant?

For indoor manufacturing, compact or electric telehandlers provide powerful lifting with zero emissions. For complex or high-reach tasks, rotating telehandlers offer crane-like precision and versatility, optimising material handling in confined industrial spaces.

How can I monitor and reduce fuel consumption for hired machinery on a large industrial site?

Ardent's Fuel Management Systems provide real-time data on fuel usage, idling times, and carbon emissions for your entire hired fleet. This allows you to identify inefficiencies, reduce waste, and significantly lower operational costs across your industrial project.

Why use a rotating telehandler instead of a crane in an industrial logistics hub?

A rotating (roto) telehandler combines a crane, telehandler, and access platform into one machine. Its 360-degree rotation and compact footprint make it more versatile and cost-effective than a mobile crane for material handling in busy logistics hubs.
