No ordinary launch – and no ordinary presentation! At the Linde Roadshow, the audience witnessed a true show as the new Linde 1251 Xi made its entrance as The Next Champ. The latest generation of Linde electric forklift trucks stepped into the spotlight by quite literally going a few rounds in the ring – equipped up front with Hagaberg’s C-Series.

First stop: Mirków, then on to Warsaw. The demo truck was packed to the brim with fork positioners and booth equipment for two busy days featuring the product premiere, exhibition area, inspiring conversations with industry experts, and hands-on test drives in realistic warehouse conditions. We proudly bring home overwhelmingly positive feedback from operators who took on a few logistical challenges on the test track, together with the C-Series on the Linde 1251 Xi!

A big thank you to the organizers of the Linde Roadshow for an impressive event!

– Long and intense preparations 🚀

But once again, every hour of planning was well worth the fantastic three days at the massive LogiMAT trade show in Stuttgart. The doors opened on March 11 and were followed by three action-packed days that were 3..2..1.. over!

In March, Hagaberg returns to LogiMAT in Stuttgart, Germany—the largest annual trade show for intralogistics solutions and process management in Europe. We look forward to maximizing our m² and showcasing how we can help optimize material handling across every application.

Preparations are already in full swing, and we’re ensuring our visitors will experience the very best of our comprehensive range of fork positioners and system solutions, complete with accessories and various customizations! You’ll find us in Hall 10 – Booth A57 during the three-day event, March 11–13.

We are thrilled to expand the capacity of our design department and maintain an ideal balance between engineering and Research/Development. Roy’s entry as Design Engineer will aid us in continuing to develop innovative and complex solutions matching the rate of the company’s growth and expanding product range. This is particularly important considering our ongoing partnerships, such as OilQuick® and Cebriá, and the expanding range of applications our products support.

With a solid background as a project engineer in construction and extensive experience working closely on customer-specific adaptations, Roy checks all the boxes to become a valuable asset in his new role at Hagaberg.

“At Hagaberg, I look forward to focusing on pure engineering and mechanics, as well as meticulously refining the final product. Fork positioners may seem like a rather limited product, but they actually hold immense potential for variation and development. This became clear to me during my very first visits here.” – Roy Öhlin

Hagaberg strengthens its presence in Denmark and Norway and proudly presents the recruitment of Michael Barslund. With an inspiring lifelong technical interest and a background in technical sales, he takes on the role of Area Sales Manager.

Michael Barslund has extensive experience in sales of forklift trucks, and hydraulic and mechanical components. Mechanical knowledge, technical interest, and a teaching role led to technical sales where he found his passion for understanding technical details and building strong business relationships.

“The market in Denmark and Norway has great potential for Hagaberg to expand within. I see a strong presence in the Swedish market, and I believe in establishing the same foothold here. That’s the vision.” – Michael Barslund, Regional Manager.

He believes in the company’s vision to further strengthen its presence in the Nordic countries and is ready for the growth journey. He emphasizes Hagaberg’s priority of the highest quality and functionality in its fork positioners as one of the main reasons he sees the strong potential. It gladens us that he also highlights encountering a personal atmosphere and strong internal relationships. “This is particularly valuable for me as I often work remotely from HQ. Having a close connection to the team,” he concludes.

Hagaberg was exhibiting at LogiMAT in Stuttgart, Germany – Europe’s largest trade fair for logistics and material handling. At our stand, visitors could discover an innovative solution for hydraulic fork positioners and other types of attachments, developed through our partnership with OilQuick®.

At the heart of our presentation was OQT, an advanced quick coupler system for forklift trucks, available in various models suitable for machines ranging from 1 to 9 tons. With lightning-fast hydraulic and mechanical attachment changes, including fork positioners, paper roll clamps, and rotators, OQT ensures that you are always equipped for the task, while reducing the risks of injuries associated with manual changes.

The OQT system will not only make your forklift truck but also your company more flexible, competitive, and cost effective.
