Since 1929, when the first Hyster lift trucks started rolling off the assembly line, Hyster Company has been dedicated to providing our customers with the best value for their investment. Today, with the world's economies facing a crisis of potentially unprecedented proportion, that commitment continues.
As one of the world's largest manufacturers of lift trucks, we offer over 130 models, configured for gasoline, LPG, diesel, or electric power, with the widest capacity range in the industry--2,000 lb to 115,000 lb. Included in the Hyster lineup is the Hyster Fortis® series, boasting the lowest cost of operation, maximum uptime, superior ergonomics, and unmatched performance.
This year, we are introducing a new series of electric trucks, the Hyster E45-70XN, which provides superior energy efficiency and outstanding productivity capabilities. Our electric powered lift trucks are engineered to perform in the toughest of applications, and provide an alternative to internal combustion trucks.
What else are we doing to help ensure a cleaner tomorrow? Hyster Company continues to pursue the commercial development of alternate energy sources, including improved battery technology, advanced energy storage devices, and hydrogen fuel cells. In terms of emissions, all Hyster trucks currently exceed 2007 federal EPA standards, and most also meet the much more stringent 2010 CARB emissions standards.
To help our customers preserve working capital during these tumultuous economic times, we offer affordable and flexible financing programs through Hyster Capital, the financial partner to Hyster Company.
Building on the success of our previous Invitation to Compare (ITC) events, our 2009 ITC events will highlight new products, including heavy duty trucks. We will continue to help Hyster customers lower operating costs and improve productivity in 2009 through our popular FleetSmart seminars, which present centralized fleet maintenance and analysis programs to effectively maintain, monitor, and optimize their material handling fleets.
With a complete package of products, services, and solutions to help improve efficiency, drive down costs, and streamline materials flow, and a dealer organization that is dedicated to helping you make the most of your lift truck investment, Hyster truly is--and will continue to be--The Safe Choice.
