Flexi Narrow Aisle - the UK-based manufacturer of the Flexi range of articulated forklift truck-based intralogistics solutions - has signed a new six-year distribution agreement with Flexilift Australia.

Under the terms of the deal Flexilift Australia will be the sole distributor of the Flexi series across Australia.

“We have enjoyed a successful relationship with Flexilift Australia for a number of years and are delighted to have reached this agreement that will see Flexilift, market, distribute and support Flexi products in what is a very important market for our brand,” said John Maguire, sales and marketing director of Flexi Narrow Aisle.

He added: “The Flexi articulated truck concept has revolutionised warehousing and logistics processes across Australia and we anticipate that demand for the trucks will continue to grow.”

Flexi Narrow Aisle Limited launched the first Flexi articulated truck 25 years ago

With over 5,000 Flexis now in operation throughout the world, the global success of the Flexi concept has been built around the fact that its clever design allows it to work at the same speed as a counterbalance forklift truck and operate comfortably and safely within very narrow aisles (VNA) - increasing productivity by up to 30% compared to conventional reach type trucks.
