Godrej Unveil India's First 48V Li-ion Electric Hand Pallet Truck

With the unveiling of the GEPT 20, India’s first 48V Li-ion battery-operated electric hand pallet truck, Godrej Enterprises Group has initiated a significant breakthrough in warehouse innovation.

The GEPT 20 is intended to provide increased mobility and operational efficiency throughout warehouses at a time when India’s logistics and warehousing industries are growing rapidly given rising order volumes and the need for faster and safer modes of handling.

The GEPT 20 is able to deliver up to three times the productivity of conventional hand pallet trucks, giving rapid lift capabilities, extended run-time, and precise control. While tough in operations, it can lift up to two tonnes in weight and run for just over four hours on one charge. In turtle speed mode, it has the ability to move smoothly and safely in narrow or crowded workspaces; it is perfect for warehouses, retail stores, and industrial facilities.
