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 organizations and no other lift truck manufacturer can equal Toyota’s history of caring for the environment while simultaneously stimulating the economy. Environmental responsibility is a key aspect 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 vehicles. Yet one more reason they remain a leader within the industry.
Toyota first released 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 standards, and Medford's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The finished creation is a lift truck that creates 70 percent less smog forming emissions than the present Federal standards allow.
Also in 2006, Toyota developed a relationship with the Arbor Day Foundation, furthering their responsibility to the environment. Upwards of 57,000 trees have been planted in regional parks and national forests damaged by natural causes such as fires, as a result of this partnership. 10,500 seedlings have also been distributed through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s system of dealers to non-profit organizations and local customers to help sustain communities all over the United States
Industry-Leading Safety
Toyota's lift trucks offer superior stability, visibility, efficiency, ergonomics, and all the leading safety equipment that has made Toyota an industry leader. The company’s System of Active Stability, often known as “SAS”, helps reduce the possibility of incidents and accidental injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the potential for merchandise and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability is able to discern circumstances that may lead to lateral instability and potential lateral overturn. When one of these conditions have been sensed, the SAS will immediately engage the Swing Lock Cylinder to re-stabilize 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 aids to prevent injuries or accidents while adding strength.
The SAS systems were originally utilized on the 7-Series internal combustion lift trucks which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped drive Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is adopted on almost 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 mandatory operator education, overturn fatalities across all designs have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Additionally, there has been an overall 35.5% decrease in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and tip overs from a lift vehicle for the same period.
Toyota's standard of brilliance reaches far beyond its technological achievements. The company maintains a widespread Operator Safety Training program to help customers meet OSHA standard 1910.178. Instruction programs, video lessons and an assortment of materials, covering a broad scope of matters—from personal safety, to OSHA regulations, to surface and load conditions, are available through the dealer network.
