5 Advantages Of Having A Merlo On Your Construction Site

Construction sites can be busy places, but your heavy machinery should be simple and efficient. Merlo's telescopic forklifts offer powerful, compact and safe models for any construction project.

Here are 5 benefits a Merlo telescopic handler can bring to your jobsite.

1. Versatility

Merlo machines are distinguished by their versatility. With many of the same functions as a skid steer, small crane or forklift, Merlo telehandlers are the ideal machines to help you move quickly from one task to another. They are widely used for all lifting operations, speeding up the construction of your projects and reducing the physical effort required by your workers.

2. Increased productivity

Thanks to their speed and efficiency, Merlo telescopic forklifts can help any construction company become at least 20% more productive. To convince you, here's what one of our customers had to say:

"I went from 1 Merlo and 4 men to 13 Merlo and 50 men. I'm at least 25% more efficient than I was, not to mention the huge productivity gains the machines bring me."

3. Easy to operate

Operators want to feel comfortable in their machines, and Merlo telescopic forklifts are among the most intuitive and innovative in the industry. With its larger suspension cab and 360-degree visibility, you've got a telescopic handler that's comfortable and easy to tame.

4. Advanced safety features

Merlo's commitment to innovation starts with the safety of its telescopic handlers. With 360-degree visibility, operators can be fully aware of their surroundings. The “Dynamic Load Control” safety system far exceeds the most stringent safety standards, with a “steel belt” that completely surrounds the telescopic frame, and self-stabilizing functions that ensure the safety of the operator and people on the job site.

5. Compact and maneuverable

Space is often at a premium on construction sites, but Merlo's telescopic handlers have a compact design that gives them great maneuverability. When you're on the edge of a hole, or moving the machine in tight spaces, Merlo offers machines that are designed to excel on the jobsite.
