Proudly Serving the North East Since 1981
Permatt has continued to grow and provide customers with a continuously improving quality of service in all areas of the Material Handling Industry.
Permatt Forklift Trucks Ltd. came from small beginnings dealing with used forklift truck repairs and parts, and has developed into a major supplier for forklift trucks including CAT Lift Trucks across the North East of England and Cumbria.
Permatt fork lift Trucks Ltd was set up in 1981 by my father Ted Percy and his partner Eddie Mathews – hence the name Permatt. My father was the first fork lift service engineer to be employed in the North East and had over 40 years’ experience in the field before his retirement in 1997.
