Aprolis has a rental fleet of more than 1500 forklift trucks.

Benjamin de Castelnau, previously sales and marketing manager at French rental company BM Location, has left the rental business following its acquisition by Kiloutou.

Mr de Castelnau will move to another of Bergerat Monnoyeur's businesses, Aprolis, the industrial forklift rental business, where he will become a business development manager.

In particular he will be responsible for promoting a range of unmanned, automatic forklifts, which is a new business area for Aprolis.

He told IRN that it had been important to work with Kiloutou during the ownership transition period, but with the acquisition now fully passed by the EU's competition authorities it was an appropriate time to move on.

He will take up his new post on 2 January.
