Toyota Forklift Parts
Toyota Forklift Part - In the U.S., Toyota Materials Handling inc., or TMHU, has been the best selling lift truck provider since 1992. Proudly celebrating more than 40 years of operations, the Irvine, California situated business presents a comprehensive line of quality lift trucks. Thanks to their history of superiority, reliability, and sturdiness, Toyota remains prevalent in this aggressive market. Quality is the cornerstone of Toyota's renowned Toyota Production System practiced at all manufacturing facilities, including TIEM, which is stands for Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, located in Columbus, Indiana. The bulk of the Toyota lift trucks sold in the U.S. are manufactured here.
All Toyota's manufacturing plants 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 continuous development 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. To illustrate, the Toyota 8-Series IC lift trucks emit 70% less smog forming emissions than the current centralized EPA standards and have complied with California's strict emission standards and policies.
Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A. - The Industry Leader
The president of Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Brett Wood feels that TMHU's achievement comes from its dedication to create high quality lift trucks while providing excellent customer 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 referred to as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world's principal lift truck provider and is amongst the magazines prominent World's Most Admired Companies.
New Meaning to Environmental Responsibility
Toyota's parent company, Toyota Industries Corporation, has imparted an outstanding corporate philosophy towards environmental management within Toyota. Toyota's loaded history of environmental protection whilst retaining economic viability cannot be matched by other organizations and certainly no other materials handling producer can yet rival Toyota. Environmental accountability is an important feature of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only producer to offer UL-listed, EPA - and CARB -certified Compressed Natural Gas powered lift trucks. Yet another 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 principles, and California's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The finished invention is a lift vehicle that produces 70 percent less smog forming emissions than the present Federal standards tolerate.
Also starting in 2006, together with the Arbor Day Foundation, Toyota added to its commitment to the natural environment. To this day more than 58,000 trees have been embedded in the ground throughout national forests and neighborhood parks that were damaged by fires and other environmental causes. 10,500 seedlings have also been spread through Toyota Industrial Equipment's system of sellers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood customers to help sustain communities all over the U.S.
Toyota's lift vehicles offer better productivity, visibility, ergonomics and resilience, and most significantly, the industry's leading safety technology. The company's System of Active Stability, also known as "SAS", helps limit the possibility of accidents and injuries, in addition to increasing productivity levels while minimizing the potential for product and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability is able to sense factors that could lead to lateral volatility and likely lateral overturn. When any of these factors have been sensed, the SAS will instantly 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, 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 aids to avoid injuries or accidents while adding stability.
The SAS systems were initially used on the 7-Series internal combustion lift trucks which were put on the market in 1999. These systems helped push Toyota into the lead for industry safety standards. Now, SAS is utilized on virtually 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 action, exceeding 450 million hours combined. The increased population of SAS-equipped vehicles in the field, along with obligatory worker instruction, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there has 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 standards reach far beyond the technology itself. The company believes in providing general Operator Safety Training courses to help users meet and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Education packages, video lessons and an assortment of materials, covering a broad scope of matters-from individual safety, to OSHA policies, to surface and cargo conditions, are offered through the supplier network.
Since the sale of its first lift vehicle in the U.S. to the fabrication of its 350,000th lift truck produced in 2009 at Toyota Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, TMHU has maintained a unbroken presence in the U.S. This reality is demonstrated by the statistic that 99% of Toyota lift trucks bought in America at the moment are built in the United States.

Facilities include a National Customer Center, as well as manufacturing operations and supply centers for equipment and service parts, with the whole commitment exceeding $113 million dollars.
