Manitou Group Wins at 2023 SustainableIndustryAwards

Manitou Group, a world reference in the handling, aerial work platform and earth moving sectors, has won in the “decarbonization” category at the 2023 Sustainable Industry Awards. The award recognizes the innovativeness and sustainability of the Group’s hydrogen program.

Organized by L’Usine nouvelle, France’s leading business and industrial news magazine, the Sustainable Industry Awards recognize innovative projects that marry profitability and sustainability in industry.

Among the 70 entries submitted for this year’s event, the jury singled out Manitou Group’s hydrogenfocused approach, and in particular the development of two prototype telehan- dlers running on green hydrogen.

Presented in December 2022,theworld’sfirstprototype telehandler powered by afuelcellwillsoonbetested on a work site, as Julien Waechter, VP R&D Manitou Group, explained: “We’ve now reached the second stage of our project: testing the machine in reallife conditions. In a few months’ time, it will be joinedbyasecondprototype ofarotatingtelehandlerwith even greater lifting capacity. More than anything, this prize rewards the innovation at the heart of Manitou Group’s DNA, and our determination to accelerate our energy transition.”

Manitou Group is keen to promote and accelerate the development of the French hydrogen industry, having joined forces with local green hydrogen producers. As a result of the technologies implemented in its products and the use of green hydrogen, the Group estimates that the carbon emissions linked to the entire life cycle of a telehandlerwillbeaquarterthoseof a combustion engine machine.

This award illustrates Manitou Group’s commitment to developing low-carbon solutions, in line with the commitments of its lowcarbon trajectory, validated by the SBTi in 2022.
