About Flexi Narrow Aisle®
To set the global standard for articulated forklifts – designed and developed in the UK, powered by exceptional people, and trusted by customers to unlock space, efficiency, and sustainable growth.
Designed and Developed in the UK
Narrow Aisle has been a pioneer of very narrow aisle (VNA) warehouse truck design and development since 1976.
At Narrow Aisle, we take pride in being the last sole mass manufacturer of articulated trucks in the UK. Our factory is situated in the heart of the Black Country, where our company has been trading since 1976. Our renowned Flexi articulated fork truck was first produced in 1990 and since then has become an industry icon. We are continuously refining our product range to perfectly meet the needs of our customers with an annual spend on research and development of over £1.5m.
Supported by Narrow Aisle’s global network of authorised distributors, we’ve supplied over 15,000 Flexis to users in over 70 countries worldwide since the model’s original release. Whilst the UK remains the largest Flexi market, our overseas exports continue to grow.
We are specialists, in a very niche market, focusing on one specific range. With our in-depth knowledge and vast experience, we can maximise your warehouse potential and bring your space-saving project to life.
