Logo IFOY Award

IFOY Award 2024

A total of 17 products from 15 companies stood in this year's final of the renowned IFOY Award intralogistics competition and could hope to win an award. Following evaluation by an independent jury of international experts and in-depth product tests during the IFOY Test Days, the winners have been announced: We are proud that our electric pallet stacker EJC 112i is one of this year's award winners.

Innovation wins: Jungheinrich succeeds at the IFOY Award

In 2024, the IFOY jury once again selected outstanding intralogistics products and system solutions from ambitious companies and start-ups. As part of an extensive audit with various nomination and test cycles, the innovations from mobile robots and smart pedal vehicles to 3D ultrasonic sensors were tested thoroughly. Among other things, functionality, innovation value, customer benefit and market relevance were assessed. This year´s jury is made up of 26 editors-in-chief from leading logistics publications and experts from 19 countries who not only understand their business, but also live their enthusiasm for future-proof intralogistics solutions with passion. We are therefore all the more honored to receive the IFOY Award for the electric pallet stacker EJC 112i.

Our winning product in the Warehouse Truck “highlifter” category sets new standards in the entry-level segment of electric pallet stackers. The Jungheinrich EJC 112i not only offers the perfect combination of compactness and performance, it also features modern lithium-ion technology with the option of quick and intermediate charging. Above that it impresses with intuitive operation and a high level of safety. The innovative pallet stacker really comes into its own in confined warehouse environments and narrow aisles. An extremely small turning radius enables confident maneuvering when handling pallets or picking goods. The result of the IFOY test: The EJC 112i is a universally applicable all-rounder that achieves top performance in its class with exceptionally high lifting and lowering speeds and optimum energy efficiency – a worthy winner of the coveted IFOY trophy. The award ceremony took place just outside Vienna in the imperial city of Baden, where the award winners were duly honored and celebrated at the Congress Center and Casino, which served as a spectacular scenery.

Content Best Practice Award

LOGISTRA best practice:Impressive logistics innovations 2022

The readers have decided! As part of the voting "LOGISTRA best practice: Innovations 2022", remarkable logistics products and solutions were once again selected. We are proud that our electric forklifts were able to convince all along the line in the category forklifts trucks.

Innovative helpers: Victory course for our electric forklift trucks.

Every two years, the logistics trade magazine LOGISTRA presents its readers 24 outstanding product trends in eight different categories to honor technical, entrepreneurial and intellectual innovative strength in the logistics industry. In line with current megatrends such as digitalization, e-commerce and electromobility, the year 2022 offered a diverse portfolio of solutions, from industrial trucks and vehicle equipment to products from the navigation and transport safety sectors, for which the readers could cast their votes online from 2 May to 17 August 2022.

Together with competing vehicles from Linde and Still, our series 2 and 3 electric forklifts competed in the industrial trucks category and enthused with their performance and versatility. The compact forklifts are not only maneuverable and robust, they also boast high safety, sophisticated ergonomics and intuitive operability. Suitable for a wide range of logistic tasks at a wide variety of locations, they easily transport up to two tons at lifting heights of up to 8 meters, while impressing with maximum cost-effectiveness. Here, maximum efficiency meets minimum energy consumption.

Our EFG forklifts also scored points when it comes to the possibility of future efficiency gains and potential savings. Thanks to state-of-the-art lithium-ion technology with extremely fast charging times, the three- and four-wheel forklifts deliver top performance at all times in the hectic daily warehouse routine – and they even do this in a sustainable manner.

TFG320

On the move: The Pallet Champion 2021

With a handling performance of impressive 146 pallets per hour, our LPG forklift TFG 320s not only outperforms its hydrostatic equivalent in the VerkehrsRundschau test, but also all forklifts tested over the past 24 months.

Clear winner: Our TFG 320s LPG forklift beats them all.

Based on the established forklift tests of the VerkehrsRundschau, the German weekly magazine for freight forwarding, transport and logistics, the forklift with the highest turnover is awarded with the title "Pallet Champion" every two years. This time, our LPG forklift TFG 320s receives the title. Justifiably, because the compact combustion forklift impressively demonstrated its performance twice.

Under real conditions, the VerkehrsRundschau test team challenged two of our hydrostatic forklifts to a test of strength on a specially constructed test course. For evaluation purposes, a comparative performance check was carried out for loading and unloading a semi-trailer with 32 Euro pallets, with both trucks completing the course in the high-performance setting. While the diesel front loader DFG 316s completed the task in 29:37 minutes at consumption costs of 1.11 €, the TFG 320s needed only 26:16 minutes at low consumption costs of 0.82 € and thus emerged as the winner from this duel.

In addition, the VerkehrsRundschau tested a large number of other forklifts over the past 24 months with regard to their handling performance. A total of 17 criteria were considered, such as working behaviour, steering, workplace or energy management. Also in comparison with all other test vehicles, the TFG 320s convinced as the winner with a handling performance of 146 pallets per hour. Congratulations!
