Avant – One Machine for Many Industrial and Logistics Tasks

Finnish-made Avant is the go-to machine for many industrial and logistics companies – a versatile workhorse and all-weather outdoor forklift truck combined. Thanks to its hydraulic four-wheel drive, Avant handles uneven and snowy surfaces with ease. The telescopic boom and boom self-levelling system make it easy to manage even the heaviest loads.

Avant is built for year-round use: winter snow clearing, spring sweeping, summer lawn mowing, and a wide variety of facility maintenance tasks. With just one agile loader, you can keep your site, plant, or industrial premises in excellent condition.

A perfect solution

Compact Powerhouse for Diverse Tasks

Avant loaders deliver strong lifting performance and precise maneuverability in a compact package—perfect for tight industrial environments and busy logistics yards.

With over 200 attachments available, they seamlessly switch between pallet handling, material transport, cleaning, and facility maintenance, maximizing productivity with a single versatile machine.

Multifunctional loader

Avant lets you move pallets, spare parts, and bags in no time. Load trucks and trailers with ease in any weather. The lockable four-wheel drive system gives you access where traditional forklifts can’t go. Smooth-tyred indoor forklifts struggle outdoors, especially in winter or on uneven terrain. Avant’s hydraulic four-wheel drive delivers traction, the telescopic boom provides reach and lifting height, and the self-levelling system keeps the load horizontal automatically.

General-purpose facility machine

With Avant, there’s no need for multiple machines. Replace your sweeper, lawn mower, material transporter – or even all of them – and still do so much more with a single loader.

Cleaner of tight spaces

Many of our customers use Avant to clean under conveyors, around production lines, and in other hard-to-reach areas. The compact size allows access to tight spots, where the loader effectively removes waste with a bucket, grab, or other suitable attachment.

5 reasons to choose

Avant for your business

Easy to use

Simple and intuitive controls make Avant and its attachments quick to learn – even for inexperienced users.

Safe

Safety is our top priority. That’s why all Avant loaders come with a certified open ROPS/FOPS cab as standard.

For enhanced comfort, the modern, ergonomic GT cab is also available – and naturally ROPS/FOPS-approved. Optional safety features and systems are available to suit your needs.

Stable

On articulated Avants, the wheels don’t turn – instead, the machine pivots at a rigid central joint using a hydraulic cylinder. This design, combined with a low center of gravity and the cab located on the front frame, provides excellent stability. The rear frame acts as a counterweight and remains steady during articulation.

Extended reach

The telescopic boom lets you load trucks from one side, lift pallets onto warehouse racks, or dump loads into elevated bins. Attach an access platform to reach up to five meters safely.

Emission-free when needed

Fully electric e-series loaders are ideal for enclosed indoor spaces that require zero-emission operation. With a battery-powered e-series machine, you can work a full day on one charge. Other benefits include quiet operation and low running costs.
