TMHU, U.S.A.- Leading the Industry
Brett Wood, President of TMHU, links Toyota’s achievement to its robust dedication to fabricating the finest 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 referred to as TICO, is listed in Fortune Magazine as the world’s largest lift truck dealer 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 company doctrine of environmental stewardship in Toyota. Not a lot of other companies and no other lift truck manufacturer can meet Toyota’s record of caring for the environment while concurrently encouraging the economy. Environmental accountability is an important characteristic of corporate decision making at Toyota and they are proud to be the first and only maker 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 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 South Dakota's more environmentally friendly emission standards. The end product is a lift vehicle that produces 70% fewer smog forming emissions than the existing Federal standards tolerate.
Also starting in 2006, collectively 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 ecological causes. 10,500 seedlings have also been distributed through Toyota Industrial Equipment’s network of dealers to non-profit organizations and neighborhood customers to help sustain communities all over the U.S.
Industry-Leading Safety
Toyota's lift trucks offer superior strength, visibility, efficiency, ergonomics, and all the leading safety technology that has made Toyota an industry leader. The company’s System of Active Stability, also called “SAS”, helps lessen the chance of mishaps and accidental injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of product and equipment breakage.
System Active Stability senses numerous factors that could lead to lateral volatility and likely lateral overturn. When any of those conditions are detected, SAS immediately engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to steady the rear axle. This alters 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 helps to prevent injuries or accidents while adding stability.
SAS was originally introduced to the market on the 7-Series internal combustion products in 1999 and subsequently catapulted Toyota into the industry leader for safety. Since then, SAS have been built-in to nearly all of Toyota’s internal combustion products. It is standard equipment on 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 compulsory worker education, 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 overturn from a lift truck for the same period.
Toyota’s hardnosed standards reach far beyond the machinery itself. The company believes in offering widespread Operator Safety Training programs to help customers meet and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Instruction programs, videos and assorted resources, covering a wide scope of matters—from personal safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and load situations, are available through the seller network.

Toyota has sustained a relentless presence 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 bought in America today are built in the United States.
Based 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 whole commitment exceeding $113 million dollars.
