How to Choose Forklift Safety Equipment for Your Warehouse

Forklift accidents are among the most common — and most preventable — safety incidents in warehouses. Here are the essentials to consider.

1. Speed limiters

Limiting forklift speed is the single most effective way to reduce collision severity. Choose a limiter that is configurable and compatible with both electric and IC forklifts.

2. Blue spot lights

A projected blue spot ahead of the forklift gives pedestrians a clear, visible warning before the truck appears around a corner.

3. Mirrors and warning devices

Convex mirrors at intersections eliminate blind spots, while audible and visual alarms alert nearby workers.
