Drive types compared: electric, diesel or LPG?
Electric forklifts produce zero local emissions, run quietly and are gentle on floors - the first choice for warehouse logistics, food production, cold stores and sites with emission restrictions. Available in the Luibl fleet from 1.5 to 10 t, with lift heights up to 6 m.
Diesel forklifts are powerful and robust, suitable for all outdoor work - unaffected by weather and changing ground conditions. From 3 to 18 t in the fleet. The standard choice for construction sites, ports, timber yards and scrap trading.
LPG forklifts combine flexibility for indoor and outdoor use with high lifting capacity. The Hyundai 40L-7A (4 t, 6.03 m lift height) and the Hyundai 70L-7A (7 t) are typical examples for logistics centres and wholesale without strict indoor emission restrictions.
Renting a forklift instead of buying pays off for project-based or seasonal needs
Renting a counterbalance forklift pays off when demand is project-based or seasonal (trade fairs, relocations, harvest campaigns), load capacity requirements vary or capacity peaks need to be bridged at short notice. All Luibl rental machines are handed over serviced and inspected - maintenance and repair risks remain with the rental company.
Compared with buying, no capital is tied up. The investment risk arising from changing requirements or technical progress is borne by the rental company.

Regulations and safety: only qualified and trained persons may operate a forklift
Operating forklifts in the Czech Republic requires the required operator qualification (forklift operator licence). The framework is set by occupational safety rules (Act No. 309/2006 Coll.) and Government Regulation No. 378/2001 Coll. Only authorised and trained persons may operate a forklift; we recommend renewing the operator qualification regularly.
For heavy-duty machines from 10 t - such as the Hyundai 160D-9 or the Kalmar DCG 180-6T - ground bearing capacity, safety distances and, where applicable, static loads on floors and bridges must be assessed separately.
Note: For work outside the Czech Republic, different national regulations may apply. We recommend checking the requirements of the country concerned in advance.
