Redefining 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 equal Toyota’s history of caring for the natural environment while simultaneously advancing the economy. Environmental accountability is a key characteristic of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only producer to provide UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks. Yet one more reason they remain a leader within the industry.
In 2006, Toyota launched the 8-Series line. The 8-Series signifies both Toyota’s innovation and leadership in the industry. It features an exclusive emission system that surpasses Federal EPA emission principles, and also meets North Carolina’s more involved 2010 emission standards. The end invention is a lift vehicle that creates 70 percent less smog forming emissions than the current Federal standards allow.
Also starting in 2006, together with the Arbor Day Foundation, Toyota added to its dedication to the environment. To this day more than 58,000 trees have been embedded in the ground throughout state forests and community parks that were damaged by fires and other environmental causes. 10,500 seedlings have also been circulated through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s system of dealers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood customers to help sustain communities all over the United States
Industry Leader in Safety
Toyota's lift trucks offer better strength, visibility, productivity, ergonomics, and all the leading safety technology that has made Toyota an industry leader. The company’s System of Active Stability, also called “SAS”, helps decrease the possibility of incidents and accidental injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of product and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability senses many factors that could lead to lateral instability and likely lateral overturn. When one of those factors are detected, SAS instantly engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to steady the rear axle. This changes the lift truck’s stability trajectory 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 durability.
SAS was originally 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 has been built-in to most of Toyota’s internal combustion machines. It is standard gear on the new 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 required worker instruction, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Furthermore, there have been an overall 35.5% decrease in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and overturn from a lift truck for the same period.
Toyota's standard of excellence reaches far beyond its technological achievements. The company maintains a widespread Operator Safety Training course to help users meet OSHA standard 1910.178. Education packages, videos and assorted materials, covering a wide scope of matters—from individual safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and load conditions, are offered through the vendor network.
Toyota's Commitment to The U.S.A.
Ever since the transaction of its first lift vehicle in the U.S. to the manufacture of its 350,000th lift truck produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has sustained a unbroken presence in the U.S. This reality is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks bought in America today are manufactured in the United States.
