All Toyota equipment and components built within North America adhere to the International Organization for Standardization or ISO 14001 standard. The Columbus TIEM plant has been honored on many occasions for its commitment to continuous progress and its environmentally friendly systems. It is the first and only manufacturer to offer EPA and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks on the market. For example, the Toyota 8-Series IC lift trucks emit 70 percent less smog forming emissions than the current centralized EPA standards and have complied with Indiana’s strict emission standards and policies.
TMHU, U.S.A.- Leading the Industry
The president of Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Brett Wood believes that TMHU's success comes from its dedication to manufacture high quality lift vehicles at the same time as providing exceptional client assistance and service. “We must be able to learn and predict the needs of our customers,” said Brett Wood. “As a leader, our success also depends on our ability to address our customers’ operational, safety and environmental cost issues.” TMHU’s parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, also referred to as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world’s leading lift truck dealer and is amongst the magazines prominent World’s Most Admired Companies.
New Meaning to Environmental Accountability
Toyota Industries Corporation, as the parent company, has instilled a rich company doctrine of environmental stewardship in Toyota. Not a lot of other corporations and no other lift truck manufacturer can meet Toyota’s history of protecting the natural environment while simultaneously advancing the economy. Environmental accountability is a key feature of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only maker to offer UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift vehicles. Yet one more reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota first introduced the 8-Series line of lift vehicles in 2006, again exhibiting its leadership and innovation in the industry. Featuring an exclusive emission system that eclipsed both Federal EPA emission values, and Indiana's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The end invention is a lift vehicle that creates 70% less smog forming emissions than the present Federal standards tolerate.
Also starting in 2006, jointly with the Arbor Day Foundation, Toyota added to its commitment to the environment. To this day more than 58,000 trees have been embedded in the ground throughout state forests and neighborhood parks that were damaged by fires and other natural causes. 10,500 seedlings have also been distributed through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s system of sellers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood consumers to help sustain communities all over the U.S.
Industry Leader in Safety
Toyota's lift trucks offer better durability, visibility, output, ergonomics, and all the leading safety technology that has made Toyota an industry leader. The company’s System of Active Stability, also referred to as “SAS”, helps lessen the chance of incidents and accidental injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the potential for product and equipment damage.
System Active Stability is able to discern circumstances that might lead to lateral unsteadiness and possible lateral overturn. When one of these factors have been sensed, the SAS will instantaneously engage the Swing Lock Cylinder to re-stabilize the rear axle. This changes the lift truck’s stability footprint from triangular in shape to rectangular, offering a major increase in stability which substantially reduces the probability of an accident from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also assists to prevent injuries or accidents while adding stability.
SAS was first released to the market on the 7-Series internal combustion products in 1999 and subsequently catapulted Toyota into the industry leader for safety. Since then, SAS have been integrated into most of Toyota’s internal combustion machines. It is standard gear on the latest 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift trucks in action, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped trucks in the field, along with obligatory operator training, overturn fatalities across all brands have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there has been an overall 35.5% reduction in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and overturn from a lift vehicle for the same period.
Toyota’s rigid values continue far beyond the machinery itself. The company believes in providing widespread Operator Safety Training services to help customers satisfy and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Education services, video lessons and a variety of resources, covering a broad scope of subjects—from individual safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and load conditions, are offered through the supplier network.
Toyota's U.S. Dedication
Ever since the transaction of its first lift truck in the U.S. to the manufacture of its 350,000th lift truck produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has continued a unbroken existence in the U.S. This fact is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America now are manufactured in the United States.
