The art of working smartly and efficiently

At Peinemann Training Center, we place a premium on expertise in forklift operation. Our comprehensive forklift training includes theoretical understanding and practical proficiency. We not only cover fundamental principles but also emphasise the importance of daily inspections, risk assessment, and practical implementation. With the guidance of our experienced instructors, participants receive personalised instruction tailored to the specific type of forklift they operate. Furthermore, for specialised industries such as petrochemicals, we offer an SOG exam in accordance with SSVV guidelines. Safety and excellence remain paramount throughout the training journey.
