When sourcing new batteries for a forklift, business owners have a choice of new batteries and used batteries — which are the better choice? The main point of difference between the two comes down to the age of the used battery and its condition.
Naturally, new batteries are more expensive but they offer a longer lifespan and for many businesses provide greater peace of mind. But that isn’t to say used batteries aren’t a great choice. In fact, used forklift batteries can be an excellent investment. Here we look at new and used electric forklift battery solutions to determine which one is right for you.
Yes, when rejuvenated by a forklift battery specialist, like Ceil Power Systems, used batteries are safe to use and charge. To reduce the strain that industrial battery disposal places on the environment, Government regulations are in place to ensure that end-of-life forklift batteries are properly reconditioned and reused.
When you choose used forklift batteries from a reputable forklift battery company like Ceil, you can rest assured that our used forklift batteries are fully compliant with these regulations, are fully reconditioned, serviced to the highest industry standards, and deliver reliable high performance to power your business. The benefits of used batteries include:
What’s more, don’t forget that used batteries can be properly serviced, repaired and regenerated just like a new battery. If you’re looking for a high-quality, cost-effective forklift battery solution, a used battery could be a top choice for your business.
Most definitely! A new forklift battery is an excellent investment in your business and offers a wide range of benefits, including the peace of mind that comes with a high-performance forklift battery backed by industry-leading workmanship and material guarantees. When purchased brand-new from a leading supplier, high-quality batteries may represent a significant investment for a business but they offer a substantial range of benefits, including:
Whether a new forklift or a used battery is best for your business needs depends on a range of factors, including your budget. For most businesses that source used batteries for forklifts and material handling machines, used batteries simply represent a more affordable option.
However, most businesses reliant on forklifts for their core operations, like warehouses, transport and logistics companies, opt for new forklift batteries. This is typically because of the peace-of-mind warranties new batteries provide, the support they get from leading suppliers, the long-term value they represent and the option to regenerate the battery when it nears the end of its lifecycle.
