Forklift attachments from Løsning, Denmark, since 1967

Proper handling.

Fork positioners, clamps, rotators and telescopic forks, designed and built in Denmark for truck makers and dealers across Europe.

On film: an integrated 6IFPF fork positioner

We build the part of the truck that touches the load.

Forks, frames and hydraulics that position, clamp, turn and reach. Truck makers fit them on the assembly line, dealers fit them in the field, and most of what we make leaves Denmark on a truck we never see again.

So it has to be right the first time. That is why we design, cut, weld and assemble every attachment in our own factories, and why our standard is heavier than the rule asks.

Built into the truck. Not hung on it.

A hook-on attachment hangs in front of the truck’s carriage. An integrated one replaces it. We were among the first to build them, and we have spent decades moving Northern Europe over.

    Residual capacity

    Same truck. Same load. 273 kg more.

    With the fork carriage replaced instead of extended, the load sits closer to the front axle and the truck keeps more of what it was built to lift. Our own example from the 2026 catalogue: 1,897 kg with the integrated 6IFPF, 1,624 kg with a hook-on unit.

    Visibility

    The driver sees the fork tips.

    An open frame instead of a solid plate. The driver looks through the attachment to the forks, the pallet and the rack, which means fewer knocks to goods, racking and people.

    Economy

    A tighter, quieter, smaller truck.

    With the load closer to the mast the truck turns tighter and rattles less. And with more residual capacity, a smaller truck can often do the same job, in less space.

  4. Residual capacity depends on the truck. The capacity plate on your truck always rules.

Wherever there is a load, there is a truck.

Ports, steel yards, paper mills and warehouses. Our attachments work where the loads are heavy, long, round or fragile, and where a truck may not stand still.

Red is what moves.

In every e-l-m attachment the red parts do the work. The anthracite holds them.

  1. Spread.

    IFCTIntegrated fork clamp with side shift

    The forks travel out to the load, from the driver’s seat, pallet after pallet, and close on it when it has no pallet. Our own claim: the largest opening range in the industry.

    Opening range2,720 mm

  2. Reach.

    TFPTelescopic forks

    The red sleeves reach the second pallet in the rack and the far end of the trailer, then pull back for the aisle. Our own figure for double-deep stacking:

    Warehouse capacity, up to30 % more

  3. Turn.

    RELTRotating load turner

    The arms close on the pallet, then turn the whole load: change a pallet, empty a bin, swap a container.

Customer-specific

Not in the catalogue? We draw it.

Pipe handlers for steel yards, prongs for coils, clamps for insulation, rotators that take 500 °C, fork positioners six metres wide. Start with your load and your truck; our engineers do the rest, and stand behind it.

CE marking requires a safety factor of 3. Our attachments are built to 4.5–5.8 as standard, because an attachment that fails stops the whole truck.

Løsning, Denmark. Since 1967.

It began as Erling Lund’s machine workshop in Kragelund, making garden gates. Six years later it built its first forklift equipment. Today around 200 people design, cut, weld and assemble attachments in Løsning and Prešov, and about 80 % of what we build is exported. Since 2022 e-l-m has been part of the Swedish technology group Sdiptech.
