<strong>The</strong> secret of success – generating a decisive added value.<br />
<strong>The</strong> history of Linde Material Handling is marked by innovations of<br />
benchmarking quality. 50 years ago Linde revolutionised the fi eld<br />
of lift trucks with the pioneering invention of the hydrostatic drive<br />
system. For more than 20 years we have been developing technical<br />
concepts to lessen the workload of drivers and lower dust and<br />
particle emissions.<br />
This innovative force has been maintained until today, and we<br />
constantly focus on our objective of achieving continuous innovation<br />
and staying one step ahead at all times. We also have many ideas<br />
for practical solutions which are geared to the future and are sure to<br />
provide maximised benefi ts for our customers.<br />
