Weekly Highlight: Bendi Training Across Four Sites

Bendi trucks took centre stage this week, with Bendi training running in four places: Novice courses for two candidates in Derby and two in Southampton, Bendi Refresher training for three candidates in Birmingham, and a Bendi conversion at our Birmingham centre.

Bendi trucks are articulated (pivot-steer) forklifts designed for narrow and very narrow aisles built for tight warehouse aisles. Whether candidates are new to the truck or refreshing existing skills, proper training matters, and our onsite instructors bring it to the equipment your team already uses with onsite training.
