Every one of Toyota's manufacturing facilities within Canada and the U.S. comply with the International Organization for Standardization or ISO 14001 standard. The Columbus TIEM plant has been honored on many occasions for its dedication to relentless progress and its environmentally friendly systems. It is the first and only producer 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% fewer smog forming emissions than the existing centralized EPA standards and have complied with Seattle’s strict emission standards and policies.
TMHU, U.S.A.- Leading the Industry
The head of Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Brett Wood believes that TMHU's success comes from its dedication to produce high quality lift vehicles while offering first-rate client support 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 known as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world’s leading lift truck supplier and is among the magazines prominent World’s Most Admired Companies.
New Meaning to Environmental Responsibility
Toyota Industries Corporation, as the parent company, has instilled a rich corporate doctrine of environmental stewardship in Toyota. Not many other organizations and no other lift truck producer can match Toyota’s history of caring for the natural environment while simultaneously encouraging the economy. Environmental accountability is a key feature of company decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only manufacturer to offer UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift vehicles. Yet another reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota first released the 8-Series line of lift trucks in 2006, yet again exhibiting its leadership and innovation in the industry. Featuring an exclusive emission system that eclipsed both Federal EPA emission principles, and Seattle's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The finished creation is a lift vehicle that creates 70% fewer smog forming emissions than the present 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 national forests and local parks that were damaged by fires and other natural causes. 10,500 seedlings have also been spread 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 Leader in Safety
Toyota’s lift trucks provide superior productivity, visibility, ergonomics and durability, and most significantly, the industry’s leading safety technology. The company’s System of Active Stability, also called “SAS”, helps lessen the risk of mishaps and accidental injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of product and equipment damage.
System Active Stability is able to perceive factors that may lead to lateral instability and potential lateral overturn. When one of these conditions have been sensed, the SAS will instantaneously engage the Swing Lock Cylinder to re-stabilize the rear axle. This transitions the lift truck’s stability footprint from triangular in shape to rectangular, providing a major increase in stability which substantially reduces the likelihood of a mishap from a lateral overturn. The Active Mast Function Controller or the Active Control Rear Stabilizer also helps to prevent injuries or accidents while adding strength.
The SAS systems were originally adopted on the 7-Series internal combustion lift vehicles which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped push Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is adopted on nearly every modern internal combustion products and is standard equipment for the new 8-Series. There are more than 100,000 SAS-equipped lift vehicles in operation, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped vehicles in the field, along with compulsory operator training, overturn fatalities across all designs 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 an extensive Operator Safety Training course to help consumers meet OSHA standard 1910.178. Education programs, video tutorials and an assortment of materials, covering a wide scope of matters—from individual safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and load conditions, are accessible through the vendor network.
Toyota's U.S. Commitment
Ever since the sale of its first lift vehicle in the U.S. to the fabrication of its 350,000th lift vehicle produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has sustained a unbroken presence in the U.S. This fact is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America at the moment are built in the United States.
Based in Columbus, Ind., the Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg. campus equals 998,000 square feet of facilities across 126 acres. Facilities include a National Customer Center, as well as production operations and distribution centers for equipment and service components, with the entire investment exceeding $113 million dollars.
