Look to achieving cost efficiency

Dan Pettersson, product manager at Kalmar, puts the view of the equipment providers: ” For some time now theres been really a very high demand for dedicated empty handlers. This is partly driven by the growth of empty containers needing to be handled and also a continued strong trend for separating the handling of empty boxes from the loaded ones. This is clearly a global trend also in smaller terminals and also in less developed markets. As the volume of empty boxes goes up it makes sense to separate the handling of them.
