As we move toward more sustainable practices as a nation and as an industry, Papé Material Handling is leading the way on supplying electric-powered equipment for warehouses across the West. In this edition of the Papé Material Handling blog, let’s take a look at the benefits of going electric along with some of the electric-powered equipment we’re offering in our inventory.

Benefits of Going Electric

There are many benefits to using more electric-powered equipment in your warehouse. Along with reduced noise pollution and the use of more modern, ergonomically-designed equipment, let’s take a look at the top 4 benefits of going electric.

#1 Environmental Sustainability

All in all, electric-powered equipment is much better for the environment. By eliminating exhaust emissions, electric-powered equipment has a very small environmental footprint, leading to more sustainable industry practices.

#2 Less Maintenance

Electric-powered equipment has fewer components, which means that the machinery requires less maintenance. Say goodbye to regular fluid refills and spend more time getting the job done.

#3 Cost Savings on Fuel

Looking to reduce warehousing operational costs long-term? When you go electric, you may pay more upfront, but over time, you and your fleet will enjoy extensive cost-savings benefits. Plus with the rising price of gas, now is the perfect time to lead the charge to electrification–both for our environment and for our wallets.

#4 Tax Rebates

In some states, companies are eligible for tax rebates for going electric. Learn more about these incentives and inquire about your state-specific rebate.
