Toyota's rich history of environmental protection whilst retaining economic viability can not be matched by other organizations and undoubtedly no other materials handling maker can thus far rival Toyota. Environmental accountability is a key characteristic of corporate 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 trucks. Yet an added reason they remain a leader within the industry.
In 2006, Toyota released the 8-Series line. The 8-Series signifies both Toyota’s innovation and leadership in the industry. It features an exclusive emission system that surpasses Federal EPA emission standards, and also meets San Antonio’s more intricate 2010 emission standards. The finished creation is a lift truck that creates 70% less smog forming emissions than the existing Federal standards tolerate.

Industry Leader in Safety
Toyota’s lift trucks offer superior productivity, visibility, ergonomics and durability, and most notably, the industry’s leading safety technology. The company’s System of Active Stability, also known as “SAS”, helps lessen the chance of incidents and accidental injuries, and increasing productivity levels while minimizing the likelihood of merchandise and equipment damage.
System Active Stability senses several factors that could lead to lateral instability and potential lateral overturn. When any of those conditions are detected, SAS instantly engages the Swing Lock Cylinder to stabilize the rear axle. This adjusts 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 durability.
The SAS systems were originally used 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 utilized on nearly every new internal combustion products and is standard equipment for 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 required worker education, overturn fatalities across all models have decreased by 13.6% since 1999. Also, there has been an overall 35.5% drop in industry wide collisions, loss of control, falls and tip overs from a lift truck for the same period.
Toyota’s rigid principles reach far beyond the technology itself. The company believes in providing widespread Operator Safety Training courses to help customers satisfy and exceed OSHA standard 1910.178. Education courses, video lessons and a variety of materials, covering a wide scope of topics—from individual safety, to OSHA rules, to surface and load situations, are offered through the vendor network.
