Each and every product that Hyster sells goes through a nine stage development process from initial concept and design to the production and sale of the product. Each and every stage of the development process has been created to guarantee product quality over the lifetime of the machinery. Hyster testing centers are able to simulate the life cycle of a forklift to ensure that the machine lasts and that it performs as intended.

To start with, Hyster performs a lot of research concerning client needs in order to be sure that we know what our clients truly want. This research is then utilized to product design. Designs are built utilizing cutting edge computer aided design techniques which help to reduce the risk of weak points and ensure that positioning of each and every component is optimal for both service requirements and performance. Prototypes are then made in cooperation with specialists and experts in ergonomics and compartment design. Each prototype and component is put through thorough life cycle testing to find and correct any issues that can lessen the life of a machine or a part to a less than optimal level. When a machine comes out of the testing stage of development, we want to be sure that it will function to a high standard. Testing in real life settings is also performed so that we can collect more information on the machine's performance and be confident that it would meet the standards required to get the task done.
