The price is on every truck we have in stock.

Which EP truck for which pharma job

From goods in and the weigh point to high racking, picking and production. Pick a job to see where it happens and the truck we'd usually suggest, with the price if we have one in stock.

    What pharma and medtech sites need from their trucks

    We don't claim cleanroom certification. What we offer is clean, quiet, well-maintained electric equipment, with the records to prove it.

    No contamination

    Exhaust, fuel and battery acid have no place near medicines or devices.

    Our answer: all-electric EP trucks, with sealed lithium-ion batteries. Nothing to burn or spill.

    No battery room

    Lead-acid means acid, charging gas, watering and spill kits to manage.

    Our answer: lithium-ion, topped up on breaks, with no watering and no battery swaps.

    An audit trail

    GMP and GDP auditors want to see equipment maintained and examined on schedule.

    Our answer: every service, repair and thorough examination logged by our own engineers.

    High value in a small space

    Pharma warehouses hold a lot of stock in narrow, high racking.

    Our answer: seated reach trucks lifting to 9.65 m, and 3-wheel forklifts for tight aisles.

    Accurate weights

    Goods in and out often need weighing for records and shipping.

    Our answer: the F4 pallet truck with a built-in scale, weighing as it moves.

    The right truck for a controlled area

    If a truck has to enter a classified area, or needs explosion protection, tell us at the start. We check the requirement with EP before we quote. A site survey is free for five or more trucks.

      A site survey first, then the right fleet

      For a regulated site we look at your aisles, racking, floors, loads and any controlled areas before we recommend anything, and we put it in writing for your quality team.

      "During the recent renewal process for our fleet of trucks Clearlift listened to what we required, got an understanding of our daily operation by carrying out a full site survey and responded in a professional fashion with a very competitive proposal."

      Compliance support for pharma sites

      Your quality system covers your equipment. Here's where we help.

      GDP warehouses

      Medicines wholesalers need an HPRA authorisation and must follow Good Distribution Practice. Clean, maintained and documented equipment supports that.

      Equipment history

      We log every service, repair and examination for each truck, so you can show auditors its history.

      Republic of Ireland

      Forklifts need a thorough examination at least every 12 months, or every 6 months if used to lift people (S.I. 299/2007). Our engineers carry out and certify these GA1 examinations.

      Northern Ireland

      LOLER (NI) 1999 sets the same intervals. Our Portadown engineers carry out LOLER examinations across all six counties.

      Sources: HPRA wholesale distribution, S.I. 299/2007 Schedule 1, LOLER (NI) 1999.

      Pharma forklift questions

      Anything else, call us or see the FAQs page.

      Are EP trucks suitable for pharmaceutical warehouses?

      Yes. EP electric forklifts, reach trucks and pallet trucks produce no exhaust, and lithium-ion versions have no acid or charging gas. They suit pharma and medtech warehouses and many production areas. We don't claim cleanroom certification, so tell us if a truck must enter a classified area and we'll check the requirement with EP.

      Can you provide service records for audits?

      Yes. We record every service, repair and thorough examination for each truck, and can supply the history for your GMP or GDP audits.

      Which truck suits high racking in a pharma warehouse?

      Usually a seated reach truck. The EP CQD16-PRO lifts to 9.65 m in narrow aisles, and the CQD14-PRO to about 8 m. We confirm it against your racking on a site survey.

      Can a pallet truck weigh as it moves?

      Yes. The F4 with scale has a built-in scale, with an accuracy of 0.1% according to EP, so you weigh goods without a trip to a floor scale. It's ordered from the EP factory and priced on request.

      Do you cover pharma sites in Cork and Limerick?

      Yes. We have engineers based in Cork, Dublin, Waterford and Mayo, as well as at our Navan depot, so sites in Cork, Limerick, Waterford and Galway are covered.

      Can we hire instead of buying?

      Yes. Forklift hire runs on 12-month contracts at a fixed weekly price, with servicing, repairs and thorough examinations included. Pallet trucks are hired as part of a fleet. We don't do short-term hire.

      Do you do free site surveys?

      Yes, if you run five or more trucks. We check aisles, racking, floors and loads, and recommend the right trucks in writing, with no charge and no obligation. For smaller sites, tell us what you move and we'll advise.

      Talk to us about your site

      Tell us about your warehouse or production area. We'll come back the same working day with clean, electric EP equipment that fits, and a price.

      Or call Navan on 01 5267 411 or Portadown on 028 3833 7038, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5pm.
