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 producer can match Toyota’s record of caring for the environment while concurrently advancing the economy. Environmental accountability is a fundamental aspect of company decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only manufacturer to provide UL-listed, EPA- and CARB-certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift vehicles. Yet one more reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota originally launched 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 Washington's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The end creation is a lift truck that creates 70 percent fewer smog forming emissions than the present Federal standards tolerate.
Moreover in 2006, Toyota established a relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their commitment to the environment. Greater than 57,000 trees have been planted in local parks and national forests damaged by natural reasons such as fires, as a product of this partnership. 10,500 seedlings have also been spread through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s system of dealers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood consumers to help sustain communities all over the United States
Industry-Leading Safety
Toyota’s lift trucks provide improved efficiency, visibility, ergonomics and resilience, and most importantly, the industry’s leading safety technology. The company’s System of Active Stability, often known as “SAS”, helps limit the possibility of accidents and accidental injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of merchandise and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability senses various elements that could lead to lateral instability and possible lateral overturn. When any of those conditions are detected, SAS instantaneously engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to steady the rear axle. This transitions the lift truck’s stability trajectory from triangular in shape to rectangular, providing 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 helps to avoid injuries or accidents while adding durability.
SAS was initially launched to the market on the 7-Series internal combustion models in 1999 and subsequently catapulted Toyota into the industry leader for safety. Since then, SAS have been integrated into nearly all 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 obligatory worker instruction, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there have been an overall 35.5% reduction in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and tip overs from a lift vehicle for the same period.
Toyota's standard of excellence reaches far beyond its technological achievements. The company maintains an extensive Operator Safety Training curriculum to help consumers meet OSHA standard 1910.178. Education packages, videos and various resources, covering a wide scope of subjects—from personal safety, to OSHA regulations, to surface and load situations, are available through the supplier network.
Toyota's Commitment to The U.S.A.
Toyota has maintained a relentless existence in the United States ever since its first sale. In 2009, Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, produced its 350,000th lift vehicle. This reality is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks sold in America now are manufactured in the United States.
Situated in Columbus, Ind., the Toyota Industrial Equipment Mfg. campus equals 998,000 square feet of facilities spanning 126 acres. Facilities include a National Customer Center, as well as production operations and supply centers for equipment and service components, with the entire investment exceeding $113 million dollars.
