Brand: Viss Veikaliem un Noliktavām

Gas (LPG) forklifts are among the most popular loading and material-handling solutions in warehouses, production facilities, and logistics centers throughout Latvia. These forklifts run on liquefied petroleum gas – propane or butane – and deliver powerful, flexible performance in both intensive multi-shift operations and variable working environments. Since an LPG forklift combines the advantage of rapid refueling with relatively low emissions, it has become the equipment of choice for small businesses and large manufacturing complexes alike. VVN offers Lonking brand gas (LPG) forklifts with a lifting capacity of 1,500 to 3,500 kg – a proven, cost-effective solution for every business.

Why Choose a Gas (LPG) Forklift?

Gas (LPG) forklifts occupy a firm position between electric and diesel forklifts, combining the strengths of both technologies. This equipment is especially suited for companies that need flexible, powerful, and cost-effective warehouse machinery.

Fast refueling time. Replacing an LPG cylinder takes only 2-5 minutes, virtually eliminating production downtime – unlike charging an electric forklift, which can take 6-8 hours.
Versatile – suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Unlike purely electric models, an LPG forklift operates in warehouse spaces, courtyards, and loading docks alike, making it ideal for companies with mixed working environments.
Lower operating costs compared to electric (battery) forklifts. Replacing an electric forklift battery after 5-7 years is a significant expense. A gas forklift eliminates this cost category entirely, making the operating budget far more predictable.
Lower CO₂ emissions compared to diesel forklifts. A propane forklift generates significantly fewer exhaust gases and particulate matter than diesel equipment – this matters for both air quality and compliance with occupational health and safety standards.
Consistent power in cold conditions. Electric batteries lose capacity at low temperatures, whereas LPG engines maintain full operational efficiency in cold warehouses or outdoors in winter.
Long shift runtime without charging interruptions. A single gas cylinder provides a full work shift (8+ hours). In intensive two- or three-shift operations, a quick cylinder swap is all that’s needed, rather than extended forklift downtime.

Where Are Gas (LPG) Forklifts Used? - Application Industries

Gas (LPG) forklifts are the equipment of choice wherever flexibility is required – indoors, outdoors, and in demanding working conditions. Such an LPG forklift is equally functional in a small warehouse and a large production complex, making it one of the most sought-after types of warehouse equipment in Latvia.

Logistics and warehousing. Cargo movement, stacking, and pallet handling in large warehouses with mixed indoor/outdoor environments – gas forklifts perform flawlessly here, even in multi-shift operations.
Food production and processing. A propane forklift in a warehouse or production facility with adequate ventilation is well suited for the food industry, where cleanliness and low emissions are essential.
Manufacturing and industry. In metalworking, chemical production, and other industrial facilities, gas forklifts deliver uninterrupted power for intensive loading operations.
Retail and wholesale trade. Large retail centers and wholesale warehouses leverage the LPG forklift’s versatility, serving both indoor shelving areas and trucks stationed outside.
During seasonal work periods, agricultural businesses use LPG forklifts to move grain, peat, and other materials both indoors and in field conditions.
Waste management and recycling. Gas forklifts operate reliably in variable environments – on open sites and at recycling plants – where high mechanical durability is required.

Maintenance and Safety

Proper operation and regular maintenance of a gas (LPG) forklift are prerequisites for both safe performance and long equipment life. Below are the most important recommendations that every operator and maintenance technician should follow.

Regular inspection of cylinders and connectors. Before each shift, inspect the LPG cylinder, hoses, and connections for cracks, corrosion, or any signs of gas leakage. Even a minor leak can create a serious fire hazard.
Observe scheduled service intervals. The forklift’s engine, hydraulics, and transmission must be serviced according to the manufacturer’s specified intervals – typically every 250-500 operating hours. Timely maintenance prevents costly breakdowns and extends the equipment’s service life.
Operator training and certification. All forklift operators must complete appropriate training and obtain a certificate to operate warehouse equipment. An untrained operator is the leading cause of accidents in warehouses.
Avoid operating in wet or flooded conditions. A gas forklift is not designed for use in deep water or on slippery, flooded surfaces, as this increases both the risk of skidding and the likelihood of electronic component damage.
Fire safety and indoor ventilation. When operating a gas forklift in enclosed spaces, ensure adequate air circulation. Store gas cylinders away from heat sources and always comply with applicable fire safety regulations.

CERTIFICATES

The products we offer have all the necessary CE marking certification marks, which ensure compliance of the products in the European Economic Area.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are gas forklifts suitable for indoor use?

Yes - a gas forklift is suitable for indoor use provided the space has adequate ventilation. LPG combustion produces significantly fewer harmful substances than diesel, so with proper air circulation, this LPG forklift operates safely in warehouses, production facilities, and transshipment points.

What is the difference between an LPG and a gasoline forklift?

An LPG forklift uses liquefied petroleum gas (propane/butane), while a gasoline forklift uses liquid fuel. LPG combustion is cleaner, produces less tar and engine deposits, and fuel costs are generally lower. Gasoline forklifts are rarely encountered in modern industrial warehouse operations - LPG systems have almost entirely replaced them.

How often does a gas forklift require maintenance?

The recommended service interval is every 250-500 operating hours, or at least once a year. Routine maintenance includes an oil change, filter inspection, hydraulic system check, and gas system inspection. By following these intervals, a Lonking forklift can deliver reliable service for ten or more years.

Are Lonking forklifts available with a warranty?

Yes. The Lonking forklifts we supply come with a manufacturer's warranty; the exact terms can be confirmed with the sales manager at the time of purchase. In addition to the warranty, VVN provides local service support and spare parts availability throughout Latvia.

How do I choose the right lifting capacity - 1,500 kg or 3,500 kg?

The choice depends on your workload and the typical weight of the loads being handled. As a general rule, the forklift's lifting capacity should be at least 20-30% greater than the average load weight to ensure safe operation and reduce wear. For example, a 2-tonne LPG forklift is optimal for medium-sized warehouses with standard pallet loads, while a 3-3.5 tons model suits heavier industrial applications. Our specialists will help assess your requirements and recommend the most appropriate model.
