Haulotte landmark order with Australia’s United

Haulotte and United Forklift and Access Solutions are celebrating the 5000th machine delivered to the Australia-based rental company, following a partnership that began in 2012.

United-Haulotte 5000th machine

Maxwell added, 鈥淭he first machine we ordered was a HA120PX, which was a basic machine compared to the advanced versions available today. It was great to see that the Compact 10DX was our 5000th machine ordered - this machine is a true workhorse of the industry, with its 4WD capabilities and robust design.鈥
