Hyster, a leading worldwide provider of forklift truck and container handling solutions for the toughest, most intense industries on earth, will be present at Made in Steel, the international benchmark event for the steel industry, held at Fieramilano Rho from May 6th to 8th. Together with its unique importer and distributor for Italy, Unicar SpA, Hyster will welcome visitors at booth B57 in hall 22, to discuss robust and reliable solutions, designed to meet the specific needs of the steel sector, with a particular focus on low environmental impact solutions.
Sustainability and innovation at the forefront
The metallurgical industry is facing significant challenges related to the reduction of CO2 emissions and sustainability. The Made in Steel event is a key meeting point to engage with industry experts on this topic. Ambitious carbon emission reduction targets (with a 30% CO2 reduction planned for metallurgical production by 2030) are paving the way for the increasing adoption of low environmental impact "green" technologies in an industrial sector vital to both the European and global economies, promoting development along the value chain of various key manufacturing sectors.
How to address these challenges in the metallurgical industry supply chain?
To address the complex supply chain challenges in the metallurgical industry, including increased safety, reduced operating costs, and minimised environmental impact, Hyster offers an integrated and tailored approach. The strategy focuses on reducing the total cost of ownership through fleet optimisation, extending equipment life, and continuous performance monitoring. Simultaneously, Hyster supports companies in maintaining global competitiveness by offering solutions that lower production costs and improve efficiency. Sustainability is a fundamental pillar of Hyster's solutions, with a particular focus on reducing pollutant emissions and adopting clean energy, through the use of advanced electric forklifts and intelligent management technologies. Workplace safety is another priority, with the implementation of lighting systems, obstacle detection sensors, and telematics technologies to monitor and improve operational practices. Hyster provides specific solutions for the harsh conditions typical of the metallurgical sector, such as high temperatures and abrasive dust, through foundry packages and additional truck protection. The variability of loads and space constraints are addressed with high-performance trucks, customised configurations, and specific front-end attachments, ensuring precision and maneuverability in any situation.
