Toyota Material Handling will be attending the International Materials Handling Exhibition (IMHX) on the 16 - 19th November 2010 at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham. Toyota will have the largest stand at the exhibition (Hall 20 Stand F70).
IMHX is the UK’s premier event showcasing thousands of products and services from all sectors of the logistics, materials handling and storage industries.
Toyota Material Handling, has confirmed its commitment to the UK’s largest materials handling event by sponsoring IMHX 2010’s VIP Valet Parking scheme. Under the scheme, VIPs can drive straight up to the entrance of the event, where they will be met by a professional driver who will park their car in a secure covered area. The guest is then invited to the VIP lounge for refreshments, which they can use as a base throughout their visit to the exhibition.
Live demonstration areas
The stand will incorporate three live demonstration areas which will provide the opportunity to show visitors the unique benefits of the Toyota products range. The three demonstration areas will focus on different product areas including hand pallet trucks, the powered range of counterbalance forklifts and warehouse trucks and a virtual warehouse.

IMHX 2010 will be the first chance to see the new Traigo HT electric counterbalance forklift. This high tonnage electric truck with load capacities from 6.5 – 8.5 tonne is designed to provide a heavy-duty electric alternative to engine-powered forklifts.
