TVH Canada is a National Service Dog Sponsor

TVH Canada is a National Service Dog Sponsor

TVH in the Americas (TVH), is sponsoring two male puppies in training at the National Service Dogs (NSD) organization in Ontario, Canada. This TVHCares initiative takes care of each puppy's veterinary, training and care expenses for the first year.

TVHCares is TVH's charity program that encourages employees to get involved and make an impact in their communities. NSD is a great organization that TVHCares supports because they have pioneered the program of breeding, training and placing Labrador and Golden Retrievers to assist children and families living with autism. The dogs are trained to increase safety levels and improve the bolting behaviors common in children with autism. In 2011, NSD launched their PTSD program to help veterans deal with the issues surrounding hyper vigilance, anxiety and transitioning into mainstream society.


With their donation, TVH was given the opportunity to name our service puppies. They decided to hold a puppy naming contest for their Canada employees where several employees submitted their choices. Out of all the submissions, TVH chose Webster, a beautiful yellow lab, and Wonder, the ambitious black lab. The pups are now headed to their foster families to start their training to soon become a helping hand to people in need.

TVH has grown to become one of the most respected names in the material handling and industrial equipment industry. Our commitment to service, knowledge and product availability has made TVH a One-Stop-Shop for our customers and their industrial parts requirements. We offer more than 8 million products from 14 locations in the Americas.

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.

How green is your glue?

If you’re looking to make the packaging process more eco-friendly, the obvious place to start is with the box itself. And that’s exactly what Salt Lake City-based Packsize did when it made its initial foray into sustainable packaging back in 2002. That year, the company launched its first product, an innovative on-demand packaging system designed to reduce cardboard waste (and the need for filler material) by creating a right-sized box for each shipment.

Now the company is ready for the next step: greening up the glue.
