Retail Supermarket-Class II

Supermarket Chain Boosts Productivity while Cutting Maintenance and Costs with Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) Technology

Losing time, money and productivity to flooded lead acid battery maintenance, a regional
supermarket chain needed a more efficient, cost-effective way to power the narrow aisle reach trucks in its retail locations. Based on the results of an onsite demonstration and a power study from EnerSys®, the company is upgrading its entire in-store Class II fleet to NexSys® TPPL batteries. The ongoing conversion to Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) technology is helping the chain streamline operations and will eventually save each store more than approximately $11,000 over five years.
