Hyster wins best new product at The Archies 2025
On 10th September 2025, Hyster was recognised at The Archies Awards 2025, winning the Best New Product Award for its J10-18XD electric forklift.
THE HYSTER J10-18XD is a series of high-capacity forklifts with integrated lithium-ion battery power. This expanded lineup of heavy-duty forklifts excels not only due to its configurability to match a range of applications, but also because it delivers high performance, and the rugged reliability required by intensive environments, all while offering a -zero-emission alternative to traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) power.
Ricky Hirani, global commercial product leader, Big Trucks & Port Equipment for Hyster said: “We’re thrilled to see Hyster recognised at The Archies 2025. This award is a true testament to the team’s dedication to making an impact in some of the toughest industries on earth. Hyster has a strong legacy, but this award shows that we continue to provide relevant and up to date solutions that meet the challenges of today’s materials handling applications. Congratulations to our team, and also to the other fantastic finalists.”
Organised by the UK Material Handling Association, The Archies has a 30-year history of acknowledging outstanding teams, individuals and solutions. The 2025 Awards took place at The Vox in Birmingham, UK, where all winners received an ‘Archie’ trophy, modelled and named after Archimedes.
