EP Equipment in Galway

Electric forklifts and warehouse equipment for Galway

Galway is one of the world's leading medtech clusters. Boston Scientific, Medtronic, TE Connectivity and Merit Medical all make devices here, mainly around Parkmore, Ballybrit and Mervue, and their suppliers fill the business parks on the east side of the city.

Medtech stores need clean, quiet, compact trucks that work beside controlled areas. EP's lithium-ion pallet trucks, stackers and order pickers fit that brief, and we supply them to buy or on contract hire with servicing and GA1 inspections included.

  • Buy new, or contract hire from 12 months
  • GA1 thorough examinations and servicing by our own engineers
  • Quotes in euro
  • Same-day breakdown response target

What Galway makes and moves

The sectors that keep pallets moving in and around Galway, and the kind of equipment that suits them.

Medtech

Galway is a major medtech cluster, with Boston Scientific (about 4,100 staff) making stents and catheters there.

Medtech (cardiac and vascular)

Medtech components and contract manufacturing

TE Connectivity (formerly Creganna Medical) and Merit Medical each employ around 1,000 or more people in Galway.

Port and bulk cargo

The Port of Galway is a tide-gated harbour handling bulk cargo such as fuel, timber and cement, about 500,000 tonnes in 2022.

What works on Galway sites

  • Medtech plants in Parkmore, Ballybrit and Mervue need clean, zero-emission electric pallet trucks and stackers for cleanroom-adjacent stores and goods-in.
  • Component suppliers to the medtech cluster run compact, high-rack stores where electric reach trucks and order pickers save floor space.
  • Tuam Road trade and distribution units suit simple electric pallet trucks and walkie stackers for loading vans and trucks.
  • Bulk timber, cement and fuel moved through the Port of Galway and into builders' merchants needs rugged counterbalance trucks, where electric models cut fuel costs and fumes in enclosed sheds.
Forklift hire

Forklift hire in Galway

Contract hire spreads the cost of a new EP truck over a fixed term from 12 months. Servicing, repairs and GA1 thorough examinations are included in one monthly payment, so there are no surprise bills.

Do your trucks suit medtech and cleanroom stores?
