Celebrating 100 years of the Yale brand.

2020 marks two important centenaries in the history of Yale: the introduction of the first electric forklift, and the birth of the Yale brand. In 1920 Yale & Towne built what is widely recognised as the first electric forklift truck to be introduced to the materials handling market, making Yale one of the oldest manufacturers of forklift trucks and warehouse equipment in the world!

We've learned a lot in so many years of helping customers solve materials handling challenges, and it's our goal - every day - to provide you with the solutions you need, how and when you need them. We are proud of our heritage and excited to continue to offer solutions for your materials handling challenges.

A glimpse into the past.

Here's to the next 100.

Providing you with the solutions you need has been our driving force for the past 100 years and will remain at the heart of what we do. Let us continue to write history together - the future is now.

Thank you from Yale.

We are grateful to you for giving us the opportunity to support your business. None of our achievements would have been possible without you. Your success will remain the driving force of everything we do. From all of us at Yale: THANK YOU.
