Eco-Performance is The Raymond Corporation’s approach to designing and engineering ecological lift trucks. According to Raymond, independent third-party testing by the United States Auto Club found that the company’s swing-reach truck used up to 40 percent less energy; its reach-fork truck used up to 21 percent less energy; and its Model 4250 stand-up counterbalanced truck used up to 17 percent less energy. This means: less battery charging, increasing equipment uptime; reducedCO2 emissions, decreasing carbon footprint; and faster cycle times, allowing for more pallet moves.
