Orders flood in for Bromma
Stockholm-based Bromma has seen the orders flood in so far this year, increasing its order intake by 20% compared to the same period in 2013.
The mix of yard spreaders and STS spreaders orders, most of which came from Asia Pacific and the Middle East, included replacement contracts for existing STS cranes, a trend which was also seen throughout the major part of 2013.
Bromma has also seen increasing activity and interest in its Weight Verification solution with sensors mounted on the spreader twistlocks. The company says this seems to be down to expected Imo regulations for the verification of container weight before a container can be loaded on to a vessel.
Some of the larger orders received include an order for 20 STS45s for the Port of Doha, 24 YSX40Es for King Abdullah Port, 13 YSx40Es for Kenya Ports Authority and seven all-electric separating twin spreaders YTS45E for JNPT Anupam.
With the global economy picking up, the company has now decided to increase its spreader list prices.
