Lumber & Paper

The lumber and paper industry deals with heavy, long loads that require specialized material handling solutions. Lumber yards and sawmills typically use high-capacity pneumatic tire forklifts with extended forks or specialized clamp attachments to handle logs, lumber bundles, and large paper rolls. Side-loading forklifts are particularly valuable in this industry as they can navigate narrow aisles while carrying long loads lengthwise. Equipment in this sector must often operate in both indoor and outdoor environments and withstand exposure to wood dust, chips, and sometimes harsh weather conditions. Durability and power are key considerations when selecting forklifts for lumber and paper applications.
