In an explosive (EX) environment, the atmosphere is loaded with flammable material. Whether it’s because of gas, vapor, mist, or dust, these environments come with a significant fire risk
Only a small spark can ignite the air, leading to a flare-up or explosion. At Barclay Brand Ferdon, we serve businesses in North and Central New Jersey, including Middlesex and Ocean counties, and select counties in New York with explosion-proof Excalibur Miretti forklifts. With a fleet of these forklifts, you can improve productivity and keep employees safe in EX environments.

We offer a full line of Excalibur Miretti forklifts. Excalibur Miretti is the global leader in explosion-proof solutions, crafting trucks to exacting standards to ensure workplace safety. We offer the following types:
Large Capacity for Sit Down Rider EX Forklifts
For heavy-duty jobs and long shifts, our large capacity forklifts have room for the operator to sit while driving. Comfort doesn’t come at the cost of functionality, however, these lifts manage from 4,000 to 8,000 lbs., lift up to 241”, and have a zero-turn radius to keep them maneuverable in narrow and very narrow aisle applications.
