FAQs
The below section has been designed to help you learn more about the popular Bendi Forklift. If you have any further questions, let us know.
What is a Bendi Forklift?
Bendi is a brand that manufactures articulated forklifts designed to be used in environments that require narrow aisle access as small as 1.6m. They are a pivot steer forklift that allows the operator to load / unload items from both a front and side angle. They allow warehouses to maximise space. Whilst they share the same inherent design as a traditional counterbalance forklift, they have a bend in the middle which allows the forks to be repositioned based on the requirements. It is a specialist machine that requires added training to ensure the driver can operate the unit safely.
Is pivot steer same as Bendi?
Yes, pivot steer is the same as a Bendi forklift. Bendi is infact the manufacturers brand name.

For example, warehouse managers will place recruitment adverts to hire a Bendi forklift driver rather than requesting a pivot steer forklift driver.
