Each product which Hyster sells goes through a nine stage development process from preliminary concept and design to the production and sale of the equipment. Every stage of the development process has been established to guarantee product quality over the machinery's lifetime. Hyster testing centers are able to simulate the life cycle of a lift truck to make sure that the machinery lasts and that it performs as intended.

To begin with, Hyster performs a lot of research concerning customer requirements in order to be sure that we know what our customers really want. This research is then applied to product design. Designs are built utilizing cutting edge computer aided design systems which help to reduce the risk of weak points and ensure that positioning of all parts are optimal for both service requirements and performance. Then, prototypes are built in cooperation with experts and specialists in compartment design and ergonomics. Each component and prototype is put through rigorous life cycle testing to find and correct any problems that can reduce the life of a machinery or a part to a less than optimal level. When a machinery comes out of the testing stage of development, we would like to be certain that it would work to a high standard. Testing in real life settings is also performed so that we can gather more data on the performance of the machinery and be confident that it would meet the standards needed to finish the job.
