The Benefits Of Narrow Aisle Forklifts
Narrow aisle forklift trucks allow for more racking within the operational space and since more racking means more pick locations, a greater number of SKUs (stock keeping units) can be stored within the space. This, potentially, can allow up to 50% more warehouse capacity.
At KMH we offer Bendi and Flexi as your top narrow aisle forklift solutions. These machines can provide solutions in the most unique of circumstances and challenges. Small and compact, narrow aisle forklifts result in a more effective use warehouse space and lower per pallet cost than larger lift truck options.
Bendi & Flexi have reshaped the material handling market by offering versatile very narrow aisle forklift trucks that can both work in tight spaces but load trailers. For the last 20 years the Bendi has dwarfed the VNA market that it set out to replace. Flexi was the original and the most cost effective solution in the industry.

Flexi VNA Trucks
The Flexi is designed to operate in an aisle as narrow as 3’ plus the depth of the pallet. It is capable of picking both sides of the aisle from either direction and can actually leave the aisle to unload trucks at the dock. By significantly decreasing the aisle width, 25-50% when compared to reach trucks and conventional lifts, the end user significantly increases the cubic utilization of his existing space. Flexi let’s you store more, in less space, at a lower cost.
