At Hyster, we know that each application requirement and work environment could vary. We have clients in a huge variety of businesses that motivates us to provide a really diverse array of materials handling product solutions.

We have built trusting relationships between production, promotion, and service teams so that we can guarantee you that all equipment are built 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.

Every machine which Hyster sells goes through a nine stage development process from preliminary concept and design to the manufacturing and sale of the machinery. Each stage of the development process has been established to guarantee product quality over the machinery's lifetime. Hyster testing centers are able to simulate the life cycle of a lift truck in order to ensure that the machine lasts and that it performs as intended.

To start with, Hyster performs a great deal of research about client needs to be certain that we know what our customers really want. This research is then applied to product design. Designs are built using cutting edge computer aided design techniques which help to lessen the risk of weak points and make sure that positioning of all components are optimal for both service needs and performance. Prototypes are then built in cooperation with specialists and professionals in compartment design and ergonomics. Every prototype and component is put through rigorous life cycle testing to find and correct any problems that could lessen the life of a component or a machinery to a less than optimal level. When a machinery comes out of the testing stage of development, we want to be certain that it would work to a high standard. Testing in real life settings is also performed so that we could collect more data on the performance of the machine and be confident that it would meet the standards required to get the task done.
