Task areas
Electric multidirectional counterbalance forklift
The FluX is a counterbalance forklift for the combined handling of pallets and long goods in equal parts. It is therefore ideal for transporting long and bulky goods, as is often necessary in the timber industry.
The FluX is particularly characterized by its patented steering system with smooth changes of direction in combination with the compact frame length and the fixed lift mast. The intelligent and energy-efficient drive concept makes it unbeatable in its class.
Electric multidirectional sideloader (3-wheel)
The HUBTEX DS 30 represent the entry-level variants of the electric multidirectional sideloader. Due to its predominant use in retail or in manufacturing companies, it is also the right solution for the timber industry. Its low entry height allows fast entry and exit of the vehicle. Loads of up to 3000 kg can be transported in narrow aisles in combined indoor and outdoor applications.

The HUBTEX electric multidirectional sideloader is a true multitasker. It can be used in almost every sector. Whether in the basic version, as a vehicle with an assistance system or as a fully automated transport system. The electric multidirectional sideloader can be used for almost all application scenarios. Its multidirectional steering enables optimum maneuverability to be maintained.
