Forklift Wholesaler Forklift Pro, Inc. Announces Change of Ownership

Bill Zemak - New Owner of Forklift Pro, Inc. www.theforkliftpro.com

Pineville, NC (PRWEB) February 28, 2013

After thirty years in the industry, Buck Caldwell, founder and President of Forklift Pro, Inc. announces his retirement and the sale of his company to new owner Bill Zemak.

"It was my passion for the lift truck industry that led me to start Forklift Pro back in 2007," said Mr. Caldwell. "After surveying the wholesale forklift market, I realized that dealer and customer needs were just not being met. I knew what had to be done. We now have what we believe to be the best team of sales professionals, technicians, and customer service representatives in the wholesale forklift distribution industry. Our success is based on the fact that we are able to deliver a reliable, quality product, and experienced sales help, including Spanish-speaking representatives and expertise in overseas exports. But even more importantly, we show consideration for the heart of the customer. And that makes all the difference in the world. I am happy to be passing the torch to Bill Zemak as I move into retirement and my next phase of life. Bill is committed to continuing with the level of quality product and customer care for which Forklift Pro is known domestically and internationally. I will stay on board for a while to assist Bill and ensure a smooth transition period for everyone."

Bill Zemak was introduced as the new owner of Forklift Pro on February 20th. A successful entrepreneur and business owner for more than 20 years, Mr. Zemak brings with him expert business development and management strategies that promise to keep the company moving forward. In 2012, Mr. Zemak sold his previous construction company – a company he started with an initial investment of $ 1600 and grew to be one of Charlotte's premier outdoor living construction companies, employing over 40 people and generating generous profits. Once the transition at Forklift Pro is complete, Mr. Zemak's plans include expansion of the company's current product line as well as reaching out to additional markets.

"I am impressed with the company as a whole," said Mr. Zemak, "in particular, with how happy the employees are. In addition to an outstanding team of talented, committed people, Forklift Pro has also invested in a number of important efficiencies that have had a significant impact on the company's continued growth potential. Chief among them are the newly designed website and web-based inventory management system. The website is working really well to reach and convert new customers while the web-based inventory management system allows our sales team to fulfill customer requests quickly and efficiently. To ensure that all lift trucks and equipment are shipped to customer specifications - that is, cleaned, inspected, and refurbished, if needed - our number of skilled technicians has been increased recently to enhance our repair and maintenance capabilities. Customers will also continue to have access to our complimentary 'Call the Pros' service which connects them with a live person able to provide information and answers important to their business. We're all looking forward to the exciting times ahead and continuing Buck's legacy of quality and concern for the customer which has made Forklift Pro a trusted and respected company throughout the industry."

SafetyTac Floor Tape Is Now Being Offered Through Creative Safety Tape for Use on Gym Floors

SafetyTac Floor Tape

Lake Oswego, OR (PRWEB) February 27, 2013

SafetyTac Floor Tape that is now being offered through Creative Safety Supply is not only for use in industrial plants but is a great solution for marking off gym floors both indoors and outdoors. The tough material and aggressive adhesive with dual-beveled edges guarantees the tape will stay in place until it is ready to be removed without sacrificing damage to the wax or finish of the gymnasium floor. The floor tape outshines the idea of painting lines because there is no dry time, cure time, fumes or messy clean up that is involved with painted lines.

Industrial plants with major forklift and truck traffic along with chemicals, greases and pallets have used SafetyTac Floor Tape for marking aisles, pathways and safety areas and have rated the tape as #1 when it comes to outperforming and other type of tape or paint. Gym floors may not experience such extreme harsh wear and tear but it does prove the tape will hold up to foot traffic and extreme sports games that continuously move up and down the court such as basketball, indoor soccer, or handicapped hockey in wheelchairs. The tape can also be used for marking off aisles that will distinguish the court area from where fans can safely walk. The tape is available in bright colors that are ideal for marking bleacher steps to reduce the possibility of accidental slips and falls.

Due to the tape's industrial strength it is scuff resistant, wear resistant and easy to clean making it ideal for gym floors with lots of activity performed on a daily basis. Custodians can clean the floors after games without harming the lines of the tape. As one custodian commented, "We have used SafetyTac floor tape for over five years on our gym floors and we have not had to replace any of the tape since using it. It is a great product for gymnasiums!"

For more information about SafetyTac Floor Tape for gym floor applications, please visit http://www.creativesafetysupply.com/ or call toll-free (866)777-1360 to speak with a professional representative.

Daimer Debuts Carpet Cleaner For Boarding Schools

Daimer XTreme Power XPH Series Carpet Cleaner Machines

Woburn, MA (PRWEB) January 31, 2013

Daimer Industries, Inc.®, the world's most popular United States supplier and brand of the industry's largest assortment of technologically superior cleaning systems for hundreds of applications within 240+ countries globally, and shipping such offerings as versatile carpet shampooer machines, heated carpet extractor equipment, floor cleaning equipment, industrial truck and car wash equipment, tile and grout cleaning machines, and many more, is pleased to announce the launch of its XTreme Power® XPH-5900I portable carpet cleaning equipment, which generates a pressure level of 170 psi and at 210ºF, the highest temperature in the 5000 series.

Two power-packed inline heating elements allow the system to achieve the high temperatures within merely five minutes. The floor cleaning equipment features drying times as low as two hours, and is ideal for maintaining carpets in large areas of commercial settings, such as boarding schools, where waiting for many hours for the carpet to dry is ill advised.

"Carpets in boarding schools should be cleaned and ready for use in a few hours. Machines featuring superior technologies that reduce the usage of water and come with outstanding suction power are required for effective and fast cleaning," states Matthew Baratta, Daimer Industries, Inc.® spokesperson. "Daimer® is thrilled to offer the XTreme Power® XPH-5900I carpet extractor, which offers powerful and efficient cleaning due to the presence of the company's Low Flow™ technology. The machine with pressure levels approaching that of some truck mount machines, weighs only 59 pounds for easy transport-ability by car or SUV."

The availability of long 25' hoses , included with each XTreme Power® XPH-5900I commercial carpet cleaner from Daimer® makes it easy for users to clean large areas without moving the machine. These hoses allow the operator to work within a cleaning area of around 2000 square feet. The machine features a solution tank size of 4.5 gallons and recover tank size of 4 gallons, and a powerful two stage vacuum motor that creates a water column lift of 100 inch and an air flow of 100 CFM. In addition, the carpet shampooer's recovery chamber is designed in such a user-friendly way so recovered water drains easily and quickly into a bucket. The machine is can also be used as interior car wash equipment.

Daimer®'s exclusive, patented XTreme-XTraction™ self-adjusting wand technology, available with the XPH-5900I carpet cleaning equipment, offers powerful extraction similar to that of an additional vacuum motor. The 12" head attached at the end of a 3' wand provides 60 percent more suction than other tools on the market. In fact, no other brands' wands feature such extraction capabilities. The technology is extremely easy to use and can even allows a non-professional the ability to clean carpets like a pro. The technology forms a bond with the carpet while the head glides smoothly over the surface.

The company's carpet machines include its exclusive Modular System Design™ (MDS™) and Self-Maintenance Engineering™ (SME™) technologies, both of which make the replacement of parts very easy, if necessary in extremely rare cases. All the parts are easily available,and can be swapped out by operators themselves, without the need to work with a professional service company. These technologies make Daimer® machines the best carpet cleaner systems in the industry, unlike other brands' models that are extremely complex and need to be sent back to the company when their parts needs to be changed.

The 5900I carpet extractor also features Daimer®'s Advanced, Adjustable Temperature Control™ technology that lets users adjust the flow of temperature as required. Carpets made of wool or other natural fibers generally get damaged with high temperature. For this reason, turning off heat is recommended while maintaining such carpets. The technology allows operators to clean any kind of carpet with the same machine.

Daimer®'s Eco-Green® Carpet Care & Upholstery Cleaner, which it is supplying free with its carpet cleaner machines during promotions, is completely soap free and plant based, and gets extracted immediately, leaving behind no residues. The solution is not at all harmful to anyone with asthma or chemical allergies. Nearly 64 gallons of diluted, ready-to-use solution can be created with two gallons of this concentrated liquid. Experts advise pre-spraying carpets with this a solution, so that it can break the bonds between the carpet fibers and dirt.

Accessories available with the 5900I allow users to perform a variety of cleaning tasks. Customers can even buy an optional 4 inch upholstery tool and staircase wand for the maintenance of furniture upholstery and carpeted stairs. Daimer®'s exclusive features, technologies, and versatility of its carpet wash machines make them among the best carpet cleaner systems in the industry.

New Novel Exposes Risks, Consequences for Urban Athletes

Philadelphia, PA (PRWEB) February 26, 2013

Carl Boddie's new novel "Trying to Score While Being an Athlete" (published by AuthorHouse) is an exciting journey through sports, romance, and trouble all found on the mean streets of North Philadelphia.

Ro is a young man with a simple and laudable goal: he wants to become an Olympic athlete. He is dedicated to his sport and to his girlfriend, Sheryl, and everything seems good – until Ro makes one bad decision and it is all taken away.

An excerpt from "Trying to Score While Being an Athlete":

"When school let out for the day, I was undecided about going to practice or letting my pride get in the way because of what my coach had said earlier. I knew I could use his disrespect to quit swimming and start selling drugs like Winston wanted. I could make that fast money, drive those nice cars, and trick the beautiful woman like Monique if I wanted."

Boddie hopes that readers will take one important lesson from "Trying to Score While Being an Athlete": "…don't ever let the streets distract you from your dreams or goals in life."

New Upgraded Features Now Available For Industrial Weighing Scales

Industrial weighing scales

Olive Branch, MS (PRWEB) January 22, 2013

Industrial weighing scales are among some of the most useful and convenient measurement devices available to industrial professionals. These types of scales are used in wide varieties of business operations including warehouses of all sizes, dry chemical operations, fertilizer plants, and airlines.

New features have been added to Floor Scales Direct's line of industrial weighing scales. The new features available for the industrial scales will still come equipped with all of the convenient options and designs that previous models were well-known for. The new models will still have a 5,000 lb. capacity and will still be rated and designed for outdoor use. However, these new industrial scales will feature upgraded digital read outs that greatly improve upon the previous digital indicator.

The new digital indicator is just as easy to read and provides the same ease of use as previous models. However, new models will have upgraded features that simplify scale usage. One new feature that the new digital indicator is equipped with is the ability to automatically check weigh items for over/under weight items. Check weighs help ensure accuracy and consistency with large and small items or orders but more importantly it allows a scale operator to quickly and accurately weigh these items.

The new digital indicators will still weigh items in 1 lb. increments but the indicator will have a feature that now allows the operator to totalize the weight of multiple items. This feature was previously unavailable in earlier models and makes calculating the gross weight of several items much easier. This eliminates the chance for possible human error and gives the most accurate readout available.

Floor Scales Direct even provides a quick ship option for select model industrial scales. Quick ship allows Floor Scales Direct to ship your new scale within one business day. However, this feature isn't available for every model so be sure to look for the blue quick ship logo to see if a product qualifies. All industrial scales come with a one year limited warranty that covers any damage, labor, or part replacement.

Boiler plate: Floor Scales Direct is a division of Triner Scales. Triner Scales was founded in 1897 and is among one of the oldest and most respected scale manufacturers in the United States. Floor Scales Direct provides its customers with a wide variety of scales including drum weighing scales, axle scales, forklift scales, and platform scales.

Boral Bricks Expands Commitment to Safety Excellence with Intelex

Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) December 28, 2012

Intelex is pleased to announce Boral Bricks Inc. is expanding its commitment to superior safety by leveraging streamlined, centralized training management tools. By choosing Intelex's web-based safety and training solutions, Boral is joining an expanding roster of Intelex clients in the construction industry.

With 46 showrooms spread across 12 states, Boral Building Products will be using Intelex's training management software to standardize training across all sites. Previously, Boral relied on a variety of approaches to training documentation, training tracking, and training delivery for sales representatives, fleet drivers, forklift drivers, supply chain teams, and management across all distribution centers. Intelex training management system software will consolidate all training records, quizzes, content and related documents within one centralized web-based system.

"With more than 300 employees to train across 46 sites, it can be challenging to maintain records, standard operating procedures, standardize testing, keep everything up to date, and ensure there are no gaps in our training program," explains Ryan Henkes, Performance Manager at Boral. "We're confident the Intelex system will help us continue to improve our safety focus by centralizing all training requirements. What stood out with Intelex was the ability to configure everything, including quizzes, and the additional functionality that didn't involve going to a third party."

Notably, Boral is configuring the Intelex system to build customized training quizzes accessible in both English and Spanish, with standard operating procedures, audio files, visual aids, and other related documents and media provided directly within the quizzes.

Working at jobsites and within showrooms containing a variety of heavy-duty building materials – including brick, stone, siding, hardscape and masonry accessory products – frontline Boral employees can be exposed to a number of day-to-day hazards and risks. Boral Bricks Inc., which already has a strong safety record, will be better equipped to become even more preventive and proactive in its approach to safety management with the Intelex system.

"Our hope with Intelex is that it will help us continuously improve our safety culture and safety awareness, and provide another employee engagement vehicle to achieve our goal of zero harm," adds Henkes.

"At Intelex, we're committed to helping companies improve training and safety performance, thereby improving health and safety conditions for all employees," says Intelex President and CEO Mark Jaine. "As such, we're proud to work with a company that takes workplace safety as seriously as Boral Bricks Inc."

New Jersey Personal Injury Lawyer Joseph A. Ginarte Of Ginarte O?Dwyer Gonzalez Gallardo & Winograd Receives National Honors

New Jersey Personal Injury Lawyer Joseph A. Ginarte Of Ginarte O'Dwyer Gonzalez Gallardo & Winograd Receives National Honors

New Jersey and New York accident attorney Joseph A. Ginarte

Newark, N.J. (PRWEB) December 29, 2012

Joseph A. Ginarte, founder of the Newark, N.J., personal injury law firm of Ginarte O'Dwyer Gonzalez Gallardo & Winograd, has been included in the Top 100 Trial Lawyers for 2013 by the National Trial Lawyers.

"I am very honored to have this distinction bestowed on me by such an important and venerable organization," said Ginarte, whose practice is dedicated to securing compensation for seriously injured people. "Throughout my career I have stood up for 'the little guy,' and it is rewarding to have my work celebrated like this."

The Top 100 Trial Lawyers is an invitation-only list sponsored by The National Trial Lawyers, a professional organization of premier trial attorneys from across the country. Invitations to the Top 100 list are extended only to lawyers who "exemplify superior qualifications, trial results, leadership, influence, reputation, stature, and profile in the trial attorney community, as viewed by our organization, other trial lawyers, members of the bench and the public at large," according to the organization's website.

Lawyers invited to join the association must meet the necessary investigation and diligent evaluation of trial lawyers' qualifications.

"I am quite humbled to be recognized by my fellow trial lawyers to be a part of this prestigious association," Ginarte said. "I have always prided myself and our firm on the personal attention we give our clients, as well as the years of experience we have in the legal field."

Ginarte, who launched his legal career in 1982, has seen his practice grow into a full-service trial law firm with a steadily growing staff of lawyers and support personnel.

Ginarte attributes the success of his firm to a philosophy of hard work and commitment instilled in him by his parents when he was a boy growing up in Newark. Both of his parents worked in factories, and he also worked as a forklift operator in a factory while in college at Kean University. His working-class background drove him to seek a law degree at Rutgers School of Law so he could represent workers and make sure they get the benefits they are entitled to.

"My father was a factory worker, and I remember seeing him get injured and how it affected our family, especially since he was unable to return to work due to his injuries," Ginarte said.

The firm has also achieved numerous large outcomes for injured plaintiffs in a variety of other areas, including products liability, civil rights and medical malpractice.

World Lamps & LED Lighting Market to Grow 12.3% Annually to 2016 Reveals Reportbuyer.com

Report Buyer

(PRWEB UK) 13 February 2013

According to the new report 'World Lighting: Lamps & LEDs' demand for global lamp and LED lighting is to grow 12.3% yearly to 2016 to $ 78.3 billion. According to Reportbuyer.com gains will be boosted by an ongoing shift to higher value lighting technologies that are more efficient, particularly as many countries phase out general use incandescent lamps. The rising availability of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and other high efficiency light sources at more affordable prices, along with improved light quality, will further propel this shift. According to the report World Lighting: Lamps & LEDs: Forecasts for 2016 & 2021 in 22 countries product sales will also be driven in part by an acceleration in factors such as personal income, economic activity, global motor vehicle output, and construction spending.

LED (or solid-state) devices will record by far the fastest global lighting market gains of any major product segment through 2016. Historically, demand for LEDs used in lighting applications has been restrained by both high product prices and technical deficiencies in the quality and diffusion of light. However, the rapid rate of technological advances is dramatically improving their performance capabilities and resulting in substantial reductions in cost, leading to LED use in a growing number of lighting applications.

Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America Inc. (MCFA) Introduces New Series of Jungheinrich Electric Pneumatic Tire Forklifts

Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America Inc. today introduced the new Jungheinrich® EFG 2-5 series of three- and four-wheel electric counterbalanced pneumatic tire forklifts.

Houston, TX (PRWEB) September 05, 2012

Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America Inc. (MCFA), a leading provider of forklift trucks in the United States, Mexico, Canada and Latin America, today introduced the new Jungheinrich® EFG 2-5 series of three- and four-wheel electric counterbalanced pneumatic tire forklifts. Designed to work in a wide-range of indoor and outdoor applications, the new series of forklifts feature all the benefits of an electric lift truck, including increased energy efficiency, zero exhaust emissions, and the ability to operate up to two shifts on a single battery charge in most applications.

"The new Jungheinrich EFG 2-5 series of electric forklifts is designed to meet the evolving needs of our customers and challenge traditional views of electric forklifts," said Chad Pauler, product line manager at MCFA. "The extended battery life and ability to operate effectively in many applications – both indoor and outdoor – provides our customers with a new level of efficiency without sacrificing productivity."

High performance, energy efficiency and operator comfort were key factors in the design of the new EFG 213-220/316k-320, EFG 425k-430 and EFG 535-550 series of lift trucks. These forklifts are equipped with a wide range of standard features, such as 3-phase AC motors, regenerative braking and an ergonomic operator compartment. Productivity-enhancing options are also available to help further increase performance in certain material handling applications.

    Improved Performance: Jungheinrich's proprietary and innovative AC technology is both highly intelligent and extremely powerful. This allows the truck to perform equal to or better than other electric and IC models, while still being more efficient in the process.
    Designed For Operator Comfort: The new EFG series of electric forklifts include a wide-range of features for operator comfort through even the longest shifts, including low-effort electric power steering on the EFG 2 and 3 series and an adjustable arm rest with easy access to controls.
    Intelligent Electronics: The electronic control system allows the operator to experience smooth travel, dynamic reversing and pinpoint positioning with minimal energy consumption. Customers will also benefit from the lift truck's five levels of pre-programmable performance modes, an added benefit for applications with operators of varying skill sets.
    Reduced Maintenance: Nearly wear-free brakes and the automatic parking brake help ensure a significant reduction in maintenance to the brake systems, which results in increased uptime and productivity for the operator. Highly-sealed components substantially reduce the amount of downtime required for maintenance by blocking dust and moisture from critical electronics.
    Available Options: Options, such as enclosed operator cabins and joystick controls, help customize the lift truck for the customer's specific application needs.
