BYD Forklifts Now Available Through the Lifting Equipment Group

Posted by Dane Tunley on 10th Dec 2025

The Lifting Equipment Group is pleased to announce that we now supply BYD electric forklifts across our network, including WA Lifting Equipment and Perth Forklift Sales & Hire. BYD has become a strong name in the electric forklift market, and adding their range allows us to offer customers another reliable and energy-efficient option for their operations.

Why BYD?

BYD forklifts use Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery technology, which is known for its safety, long service life and low maintenance requirements. They charge quickly, don’t require battery watering, and are built to handle demanding, multi-shift environments. For many businesses, this means lower running costs and less downtime compared to traditional lead-acid or internal combustion forklifts.

A Good Fit for WA Industry

Electric forklifts continue to gain traction in warehousing, logistics, manufacturing and industrial sectors throughout Western Australia. BYD’s technology performs well in these settings, particularly where clean, quiet and efficient operation is preferred. Their forklifts deliver consistent power throughout the shift and eliminate the need for fuel storage or battery changeovers.

Models Now Available

We are now offering the BYD range of electric counterbalance forklifts, along with pallet trucks and stackers. Capacities and configurations vary to suit different applications, from general warehouse work through to heavier industrial use.

Support Through the Lifting Equipment Group

Customers will have access to our usual support — including sales, hire options, servicing, parts and on-site assessments. Our team can also assist with planning a transition from conventional forklifts to electric units where required.
