Commitment to quality

Published:  25 February, 2014

TOYOTA MATERIAL HANDLING reports it continues to drive forward safety and sustainability by introducing a new quality, safety and sustainability team across its UK network.

The team is headed up by quality, safety and environmental manager, Keith Braidley who has more than 25 years of experience in the materials handling industry.

The company says safety, quality and sustainability have always been an important part of the Toyota way of working and are key to the success of the Toyota production system. Last year Toyota was awarded ‘Gold Level’ by EcoVadis, where it scored highly in the four assessment categories in the material handling sector; environment, labour practices, fair business practices, and suppliers. The Toyota Material Handling Sustainability Report will be available to download on the Toyota website www.toyota-forklifts.co.uk
