ULMA forklifts exhibited at the fair of the Sil, held from 3 to 6 June in Barcelona, an innovative lift truck of natural gas compressed (CNG). The advantages offered by this model are defined with the concepts of ecology and economy. Economy because consumption per hour worked of EUR 0.5 and ecology because it reduces CO2 emissions and emissions of NO and CO, contains no lead or traces of heavy metals, emits no solid particulates and SO2generate lower levels of noise and vibration than diesel engines and guarantees lower levels of other toxic emissions.

Of its technical characteristics are the Mitsubishi engine of natural gas; electronic injection of natural gas with probe system lambda and catalyst, optimizing the operation of the engine performance, consumption and emissions; the deposit of CNG to 200 bar of 80 litres of hydraulic capacity; the autonomy of 6.5 hours and the average consumption of 2.5 m3/hour.
