Global Industrial introduces pallet jack for safer, faster pallet handling
Global Industrial Company announced the availability of its Global Industrial Electric Pallet Jack with Charger, a compact, self-propelled pallet truck designed to help warehouses and distribution facilities move palletized goods more efficiently while reducing physical strain on operators.
The electric pallet jack is intended for environments where space, turning radius, and operator fatigue affect daily throughput. By replacing manual handling with powered movement, the unit supports faster material flow across aisles, loading areas, and dock operations. It is engineered to provide a strong set of features within the electric pallet truck category, delivering lithium-powered performance at a lower price point than many comparable models. This makes it a cost-effective solution for material-handling environments.
The unit is powered by a rechargeable lithium iron phosphate battery that provides up to three hours of continuous operation under typical use conditions. Lithium iron phosphate batteries are non-toxic, remain stable at high temperatures, and offer a longer service life than traditional battery chemistries, making them suited for daily use in commercial and industrial facilities.
“Facilities are rethinking how foundational material-handling equipment can drive measurable gains in productivity and safety,” said Category Manager Kerri Merritt. “Powered pallet handling is becoming a standard for improving throughput and reducing physical strain on operators. The Global Industrial Electric Pallet Jack delivers the performance and reliability needed for today’s busy work environment, with lithium-powered efficiency and a value-driven price point that makes upgrading more accessible.”
Key features of the Global Industrial Electric Pallet Jack include:
- Supports loads up to 3,300 pounds and travel speeds up to 2.7 miles per hour under load. A 57-degree turning radius enables maneuverability in narrow aisles and crowded work areas.
- Features intuitive operator controls, including dual butterfly switches, push-button handle controls, an integrated horn, and an emergency stop switch.
- Includes built-in safety features such as a toe guard and an override brake that allows the unit to be repositioned manually when needed.
- Equipped with 27-inch by 48-inch forks, weighs approximately 309 pounds, and is cETL certified. No assembly required; includes one battery and one charger.
The electric pallet jack is planned to be featured as part of Global Industrial’s product lineup at MODEX 2026, taking place April 13–16, in Atlanta, where the company will highlight equipment designed to support more efficient and more ergonomic material handling operations. Global Industrial will exhibit at Booth A3118 on the first level of the Georgia World Congress Center.
