Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A. - The Industry Leader
Brett Wood, President of TMHU, links Toyota’s success to its robust commitment to manufacture the best quality lift trucks while delivering the utmost customer service and support. “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 known as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world’s biggest lift truck provider and is among the magazines celebrated World’s Most Admired Companies.
Redefining Environmental Accountability
Toyota's parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, has imparted an excellent corporate ideology towards environmental stewardship within Toyota. Toyota's loaded history of environmental protection whilst retaining economic viability can not be matched by other companies and undoubtedly no other materials handling maker can so far rival Toyota. Environmental accountability is a key characteristic of company 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 vehicles. Yet another reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota first introduced the 8-Series line of lift trucks in 2006, again exhibiting its leadership and innovation in the industry. Featuring an exclusive emission system that eclipsed both Federal EPA emission principles, and Missouri's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The finished product is a lift vehicle that creates 70% less smog forming emissions than the current Federal standards allow.
Moreover in 2006, Toyota developed a relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their commitment to the environment. Upwards of 57,000 trees have been planted in local parks and national forests damaged by environmental causes such as fires, as a product of this relationship. 10,500 seedlings have also been circulated through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s system of sellers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood consumers to help sustain communities all over the United States
Industry-Leading Safety
Toyota’s lift trucks offer better productivity, visibility, ergonomics and resilience, and most notably, the industry’s leading safety technology. The company’s System of Active Stability, also known as “SAS”, helps decrease the chance of incidents and accidental injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the potential for merchandise and equipment damage.
System Active Stability senses numerous conditions that might lead to lateral volatility and possible lateral overturn. When one of those factors are detected, SAS instantly engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to steady the rear axle. This transitions the lift truck’s stability footprint from triangular in shape to rectangular, offering a major increase in stability which substantially reduces the likelihood of an accident from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also assists to avoid injuries or accidents while adding strength.
The SAS systems were initially adopted on the 7-Series internal combustion lift vehicles which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped thrust Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is used on nearly every modern internal combustion models and is standard equipment for the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift vehicles 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. Additionally, there have been an overall 35.5% decrease in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and tip overs from a lift truck for the same period.
Toyota’s hardnosed values extend far beyond the technology itself. The company believes in offering extensive Operator Safety Training services to help users satisfy and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Education programs, video lessons and an assortment of materials, covering a wide scope of subjects—from individual safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and cargo situations, are accessible through the supplier network.

Ever since the transaction of its first lift vehicle in the U.S. to the construction of its 350,000th lift vehicle produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has continued a unbroken presence in the U.S. This fact is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America now are built in the United States.
