AntOn by Jungheinrich is a new material handling equipment brand with an initial electric offering for businesses seeking reliable and cost-effective solutions
Material handling equipment provider Jungheinrich has announced the Asia-Pacific launch of its new value-focused brand – AntOn by Jungheinrich – following its successful European debut.
Supported by German safety standards and testing expertise, AntOn offers customers reliable and straightforward cost-effective solutions, with the initial AntOn portfolio including the CBH 2.0, CBM 2.5, 3 and 3.5-tonne load capacity electric forklifts.
Offering travel speeds of up to 17km/h, these models feature advanced lithium-ion batteries for rapid charging and extended operation, long service life, and minimal maintenance for reliable and efficient material handling.
The portfolio also includes the electric compact PTL 1.5-tonne load capacity pallet truck, featuring an additional battery slot for continuous performance, with the portfolio set to expand towards a full product range in the future.
Jungheinrich says the launch of the AntOn brand responds to strong growth in Asia-Pacific’s material handling value segment – driven by accelerating industrialisation, logistics expansion, and construction activity across India and SoutheastAsia, alongside the ongoing diversification of regional supply chains such as Australia.
In Australia, growth in logistics, warehousing, and infrastructure is driving demand for cost-effective, reliable material handling equipment, Jungheinrich adds.
Rising operating costs and ESG expectations are accelerating the shift from internal combustion forklifts to electric solutions, Jungheinrich says, with lithium-ion technology increasingly adopted for its lower cost of ownership, zero maintenance, fast charging, and reliable performance.
“With more than 70 years of material handling expertise, Jungheinrich delivers end-to-end solutions supported by an established parts and service network across Asia-Pacific,” Jungheinrich APAC vice president Manojit Acharya.
“AntOn by Jungheinrich extends our offering to customers for whom reliability, simplicity, and value matter most, delivering cost-effective solutions that get the job done.”
