GREENE, N.Y., June 10, 2025 — In alignment with National Forklift Safety Day, The Raymond Corporation proudly reaffirms its commitment to innovation, training and awareness across the material handling industry. Sponsored by the Industrial Truck Association (ITA), National Forklift Safety Day — recognized this year on June 11 — highlights the critical role of operator training and the need to promote best practices in warehouses and distribution centers nationwide.

“For more than a century, Raymond has been dedicated to developing solutions that put security and productivity at the forefront,” said Michael Field, chief operations officer, Toyota Material Handling North America, which includes The Raymond Corporation. “As technology advances, so must our approaches to best practices. National Forklift Safety Day is an opportunity to elevate the conversation around training, data and equipment design to help protect today’s operators.”

Driven by operators and backed by innovation, Raymond continues to expand its suite of intralogistics solutions with integrated technologies and data-driven insights aimed at proactive security management. In 2025, the company is emphasizing three key areas in its initiatives:

• Enhanced Training Programs: Raymond’s Safety On The Move^® Operator Training Program remains a cornerstone of its security offerings, helping thousands of operators and managers each year gain the skills needed to maintain safe working environments.
  • From now through July 31, use code NFSD2525 for 25% off Raymond’s Safety On The Move e-learning program.
• Smart Technology: Advanced features such as Zoning and Positioning technology, In-Aisle Detection System and telematics via iWAREHOUSE^® Real-Time Location System support facility-wide visibility and informed decision-making.
• Partnerships in Awareness: Raymond continues to collaborate with ITA, dealer partners and customers to promote year-round awareness campaigns, audits and tailored consultation services to support evolving operational needs.

As part of the 2025 observance, Raymond is hosting additional internal forums and virtual learning sessions, making measurable impacts on its culture of best practices.

“Promoting the security of our customers, employees and dealer network is not just a goal — it’s a shared responsibility and a continuous journey,” Field said. “We’re proud to lead by example and support the education and tools that keep our industry strong.”
