Hamburg, 30 September 2025 – Jungheinrich is commencing the sale of its new portfolio of vehicles for the entry-level segment under the brand “AntOn by Jungheinrich”. The launch will kick off with the CBH 2.5 and 3.0 electric forklift trucks and the PTL 1.5 pallet truck, all of which guarantee reliable performance and feature modern lithium-ion technology.
“The AntOn by Jungheinrich brand is a new product line combining ease of use, reliability and cost-effectiveness,” says Nadine Despineux, Member of the Board of Management, Sales at Jungheinrich. “We are specifically targeting companies that are looking for cost-effective and straightforward solutions for typical warehouse and transport requirements.” The “AntOn by Jungheinrich” product line is being developed as part of a partnership between Jungheinrich and EP Equipment announced by both companies in May 2025. The collaboration combines expert German engineering with flexible, efficient production structures. Synergies in development and production processes facilitate the construction of innovative, reliable, and affordable electric forklift trucks, thereby creating smart and economical intralogistics solutions for maximum benefit to the customer.
The CHB 2.5 and 3.0 electric forklift trucks can handle a nominal load capacity of 2,500 and 3,000 kg, respectively. The trucks can move at speeds of up to 17 km/h and have a lifting height of up to 4,800 mm. Thanks to their high ground clearance and large tyres, the trucks are ideal for use in a variety of environments. Their robust construction and intuitive handling ensure that they perform reliably in day-to-day use.
The PTL 1.5 is an impressively compact pallet truck with a nominal load capacity of 1,500 kg and dimensions measuring 1,550 x 560 x 1,230 mm. It can be deployed flexibly in the warehouse or outdoors and can also be taken along on a lorry. Optional extras include stabilisers for uneven surfaces and a replacement battery for longer operating times at full capacity. Both vehicles are equipped with powerful lithium-ion technology, which allows for short charging times, a long service life and minimal maintenance.
The European market launch will start on 30 September. Customers in Asia-Pacific and Latin America will also be able to purchase the vehicles from November onwards. A clear multichannel approach to sales is being pursued as part of Strategy 2030+. The AntOn portfolio is mainly available via e-commerce, partners, distributors and direct sales.
