Sets a new benchmark for sustainable energy
solutions across manufacturing and warehousing led supply chains.
Mumbai : Godrej Enterprises Group (GEG) has
introduced India’s first Multi‑Ion
battery technology for electric forklifts through its Material Handling
Equipment (MHE) business, one of the market leaders in India’s material
handling segment. The launch addresses the growing need for efficient,
reliable, and sustainable energy solutions as India’s manufacturing, logistics,
and warehousing sectors scale rapidly, to enable 25% lower total cost of
ownership, higher equipment uptime, and cleaner industrial operations, with a
battery designed to last through the full operational life of the forklift.
India’s industrial and warehousing market
continues to demonstrate strong momentum, with over 11 million sq. ft. of
leasing across the top eight cities in Q1 2026, registering a double digits year‑on‑year
growth, driven by demand from 3PLs, e‑commerce,
and manufacturing‑led supply
chain modernisation. As warehouses grow denser and throughput intensifies, the
need for energy‑efficient,
safe, and future‑ready
material handling solutions has become central to productivity and performance
Multi‑Ion
battery combines fast and opportunity charging, zero maintenance, and high
energy efficiency, while eliminating rare‑earth
dependency and reducing disposal challenges. Developed in collaboration with,
one of India’s leading deep‑tech
battery innovators, the technology delivers up to 5,000 life cycles—nearly 60%
higher than standard lithium‑ion,
making it battery for life of equipment, lowering Designed to operate reliably
in ambient temperatures above 45°C, the Multi‑Ion battery is ideally suited for India’s tropical climatic
conditions.
Mr. Anil Lingayat, Business Head, Material
Handling Equipment, Godrej Enterprises Group, said, “As India’s supply chains scale in
complexity and intensity, material handling requires energy solutions that
deliver reliability, long‑term value, and sustainability. With Multi‑Ion
battery technology, we are rethinking how industrial equipment is powered,
applying advanced engineering to enable higher uptime, lower ownership costs,
and cleaner operations across the value chain, including MSMEs. This reflects
our focus on design‑led innovation, R&D, and technology‑driven product focus
that delivers real, scalable impact across the logistics ecosystem.”
As a leading player in the material
handling space, Godrej Enterprises Group views such innovations as critical to
strengthening supply‑chain efficiency, warehouse productivity, and operational
resilience at scale.
The launch reflects Godrej Enterprises
Group’s advanced engineering focus and digital integration within its material
handling portfolio. Backed by over 5,000 hours of real‑world validation and a 7‑year
warranty, the Multi‑Ion battery technology reinforces the long‑term trust
customers place in Godrej’s industrial solutions.
