THREE LAYERS OF SAFETY
Is your operation doing enough to promote lift truck operating best practices? Read this whitepaper to discover the three layers of safety your application should consider.
Safety Innovations For Constantly Evolving Operations
In Europe, the largest share of all fatal accidents atwork took place while people were driving or on boardtransport or handling equipment (17.2 %). Losing controlof machines, tools, or transport and handling equipmentis also the leading cause of both non-fatal and fatalaccidents, accounting for 25.7 % of the latter in the EU.
Have you considered all your lift truck power options?
Demanding materials handling applications, such as in the manufacturing, steel, and agriculture industries, have historically depended on lift trucks with internal combustion engines (ICEs), due to their consistent power delivery and high performance.

TOP FIVE QUESTIONS TO ASK BEFORE PURSUING INDOOR FORKLIFT ELECTRIFICATION
Demanding industries like transport and manufacturing
have long relied on internal combustion engine (ICE)
forklifts, even in indoor settings. That’s changing. Electric
motive power is increasingly popular among high-intensity
operations, and electric options for forklifts are no longer
limited to lead-acid batteries. The opportunity is there,
but what should you know about electrification for indoor
forklift applications?
LITHIUM-ION HELPS PAPER AND PACKAGING OPERATIONS
Two large providers of paper and packaging solutions in the US faced similar challenges within their material handling operations. In order to limit costs, reduce emissions, improve their work environment and boost labour utilisation, the paper and packaging companies partnered with Hyster.

CREATING A CULTURE OF SAFETY
When any job or activity becomes second nature, familiarity often breeds inattentiveness—a sense of “autopilot” kicks in, and carelessness can result. Or, if a task or job can be completed more efficiently using some sort of shortcut, human nature will often dictate that action. Unfortunately, both distraction and corner-cutting can lead to disaster for the individual and others. In the materials handling industry, specifically those facilities using forklifts and industrial trucks, safe practices involve multiple layers of application from truck and machinery operations, to employee and visitor conduct

Top Trends Influencing Your Industrial Forklift Selection
In tough industrial materials handling operations, no two applications face the same challenges. Even stakeholders across a single organisation will have different priorities
when it comes to selecting lift trucks.
HVO: A NEW TOOL TO TACKLE SUSTAINABILITY CHALLENGES
Across the world, focus on reducing materials handling
equipment fuel emissions is intensifying. Sometimes
to meet corporate environmental objectives, and often
hastened by local emissions standards and regulations.
RETHINK YOUR LIFT TRUCK POWER
Although they’re not often top of mind, forklift power sources affect your operations every day because the lift trucks they power are responsible for delivering parts and materials throughout your facility and moving final products out. These are bookend functions that keep your operation moving.
