At Hyster, we recognize that each application requirement and work environment could be different. We have clients in a wide range of industries that inspire us to provide a very diverse variety of materials handling product solutions. No matter what the environmental conditions are or what your business is we have a product to get jobs completed effectively and meet your needs. We have built trusting relationships between marketing, service and manufacturing teams so that we could assure you that each machine is manufactured to the highest quality standards and that you will be given the ongoing support you require when you have a Hyster machine on your work place.

From the initial concept and design to the manufacturing and selling of the machinery, each and every machine that Hyster markets will go through a nine stage development process. Every stage of the development process has been created to ensure product quality over the lifetime of the machinery. Hyster testing centers are able to simulate the life cycle of a lift truck in order to ensure that the product performs as designed and that it lasts.

To be certain that we know what our customers actually want, Hyster performs a great deal of research concerning customer requirements. All this research is then used to the products design. Designs are built utilizing cutting edge computer aided design techniques which help to reduce the risk of weak points and ensure that positioning of all parts are optimal for both performance and servicing requirements. Prototypes are then built in cooperation with professionals and specialists in compartment design and ergonomics. Each component and prototype is put through rigorous life cycle testing to pick up on and correct any problems that may lessen the life of a machinery or a component to a less than optimal level. When a machine comes out of the testing stage of development, we would like to be sure that it would work to a high standard. Testing in real life settings is also performed so that we could gather more information on the machine's performance and be confident that it will meet the standards required to finish the task.
