Insights from Asia Logistics Expo: Efficiency, Intelligence, and Sustainability Emerge as Major Themes for Forklift Upgrades, Driving Demand for High-End Parts

At the recently concluded 2025 Asia Logistics Exhibition (CeMAT ASIA), forklifts, the "workhorses" of modern warehousing, clearly demonstrated a technological upgrade path focused on efficiency, intelligence, and sustainability. This trend sets a clear direction for the upstream parts industry.

Innovations in Endurance and Power: New electric forklift models from industry leaders were a major focus. Their adoption of new lithium battery technology significantly increases operational time compared to traditional batteries and enhances fast-charging capabilities. This indicates growing market demand for high-performance batteries, efficient electric drive systems, and thermal management components.

Intelligent and Precise Operation: Smart control technology was another highlight. Several forklifts featured high-precision laser navigation and intelligent sensing systems, enabling millimeter-accurate stacking and seamless integration with warehouse management systems. This raises the requirements for core components like sensors, controllers, and navigation modules that ensure stable positioning and precise control.

Specialization and Environmental Focus: Compact forklifts designed for narrow aisles attracted significant attention for maximizing storage space. Aligning with the "green logistics" trend, innovative products such as reusable eco-friendly pallets and carriers with built-in smart tracking chips were showcased. This opens new market opportunities for developing lightweight structural parts, eco-composite materials, and IoT terminal components.

Editor's Note: The evolution of complete machines begins with core components. We are committed to closely following these technological trends and developing more reliable, intelligent, and sustainable core parts for forklifts, advancing alongside the industry.
