Oshkosh Corporation Creates New Product Category with North America’s First Fully Integrated, Zero-Emission Electric Refuse Collection Vehicle

Innovation and environmental stewardship spur cutting-edge, purpose-built solution

OSHKOSH, Wis. (Feb. 21, 2023) – Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading innovator of purpose-built vehicles and equipment, is pleased to announce that it has engineered and produced North America’s first fully integrated, electric refuse collection vehicle, creating a new category and bringing advanced technology to the refuse industry.

Traditional refuse vehicles require the mounting of a refuse collection body to a third-party chassis. The new Oshkosh integrated refuse collector has been designed from the ground up to offer customers a single OEM electric vehicle (EV) solution.

Oshkosh leaned into its nearly 30-years of electrification expertise to bring its latest vehicle to market. This electrified refuse collector features a sophisticated drivetrain that includes advanced lithium-ion batteries and a revolutionary electric-axle system. The vehicle will enable a full day’s refuse collection on a single charge with zero emissions. It was designed to minimize environmental impact and reduce noise in communities around the world, while helping customers meet their sustainability initiatives. 

“When Oshkosh engineers began this project, they put both the customer and user experiences at the center of our design,” said Pfeifer. “For the buyer, chassis selection and integration are eliminated. For the driver, active safety systems, performance technologies and ergonomic features deliver best in class safety, comfort and productivity.  And for the technician, intelligent, connected systems reduce routine service and enable condition-based maintenance.”

Manufacturing of Oshkosh’s integrated, electric refuse collection vehicle will leverage several Oshkosh facilities, including a new, state-of-the-art plant in Murfreesboro, Tenn. Product prototype testing on designated routes will be completed in 2023, with customer deliveries starting in 2024.

The award was presented to McNeilus by the Minnesota Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), as well as the Ohio Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve.

McNeilus, as well as the entire Oshkosh Corporation family, are passionate about supporting military team members and have many programs to showcase that care. The Company was nominated by Warehouse Manager and Sgt. 1^st Class Kolt Krumpos from its Dodge Center, Minn. location and Jim McReynolds, Vice President and General Manager of Customer Support Solutions accepted the award at a ceremony at the Minnesota State Fair. McNeilus is one of 25 companies to receive this prestigious designation this year in Minnesota.

The company’s Ohio service branch was also nominated for providing extraordinary support while team member Jarad Wood served in critical disaster relief operations. Customer Support Manager Eric Berenstein accepted the award on the company’s behalf. 

“At McNeilus, we have a people first culture where we care for our team members as well as their families. We’re proud to have many veterans and reservists as part of our workforce who bring unique perspective and skills to our team which enable us to provide great support to our customers. We salute their service to our nation and are honored to support them while they are on military leave,” said Jim McReynolds, Vice President and General Manager of McNeilus Customer Support Solutions. “We could not be more honored to have received this award at our Minnesota and Ohio locations.”

McNeilus has an active military employee business resource group that hosts events, provides mentorship and an opportunity to connect with service members across the company. The mission of this group is to recruit, rally and recognize current and former service members across the organization and is an important way that the company supports military team members.

“I’ve been with the organization for more than 16 years and I’ve been enlisted that whole time. Through my journey I’ve gone through three deployments, each around 15 months, which has been very impactful personally and professionally,” said Kolt Krumpos, Sgt. 1^st Class and Warehouse Manager at McNeilus. “I’ve been fortunate that my leaders and peers at McNeilus have gone out of their way to check in with my spouse and kids, and even sent myself and my family care packages while I was gone. I’m proud to work at McNeilus and cannot thank them enough for the comfort they provided to me and my family while I was deployed.”

As part of the Oshkosh Corporation portfolio, McNeilus partners with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation’s Hiring our Heroes program.

SSAB Partners with McNeilus, Oshkosh to Build First Commercial Vehicles in U.S. with Fossil-Free Steel

McNeilus refuse collection vehicles chosen for first prototypes in manufacturing environmentally sustainable severe-duty vehicles.

Dodge Center, Minn. (Sept. 20, 2022) –  McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc, an Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE:OSK) company, is excited to announce a partnership with SSAB in fossil-free steel applications for severe-duty commercial vehicles. SSAB initiated this partnership with Oshkosh Corporation because of its reputation as a leading innovator of mission-critical vehicles and essential equipment, including McNeilus’ market-leading refuse collection vehicles.

The first use of this fossil-free steel will be to prototype advanced, environmentally sustainable McNeilus® refuse collection vehicles. Oshkosh Corporation and McNeilus are working together on future research and development initiatives across multiple commercial vehicle product lines.

“Creating a more sustainable future is central to our strategic vision,” said Brad Nelson, President of McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing and Senior Vice President of Oshkosh Corporation. “As a leader and innovator in the industries we serve, Oshkosh Corporation and McNeilus are proud to partner with SSAB on this global initiative as a next step in delivering high-performance, sustainable products to our customers.”

“We are very happy to welcome Oshkosh Corporation and McNeilus into our partner group to be the first in the United States to prototype fossil-free steel in commercial and industrial vehicles,” says Martin Lindqvist, President and CEO at SSAB. “Demand for fossil-free steel continues to increase globally. This step confirms our commitments to mitigate global climate change, and collaboration with forward-thinking organizations around the world for industry-leading change is how it will happen.”

SSAB aims to deliver fossil-free steel to the market in commercial scale during 2026 and delivered the first steel made of hydrogen-reduced iron in 2021. SSAB works with iron ore producer LKAB and energy company Vattenfall in Sweden as part of the HYBRIT initiative to develop a value chain for fossil-free iron- and steel production, replacing coking coal traditionally needed for iron ore-based steelmaking, with fossil-free electricity and hydrogen. This process virtually eliminates carbon dioxide-emissions in steel production.

Sustainability efforts across McNeilus and Oshkosh Corporation include working to reduce the “use-phase” emissions of products through fuel efficiency, alternative fuels and electrification to help customers significantly reduce their carbon footprint and move industries forward. ”
