Cargotec equipment in demand

Cargotec has won yet more orders for its cargo handling solutions – four new Kalmar Gloria reachstackers for Sweden and a standard road-mobile Siwertell 10 000 S cement unloader for Turkey.

Kalmar's Gloria reachstacker is proving popular

The fifth generation Kalmar DRG reachstackers will be supplied to Stockholms Hamnar, one of the top five container terminals in Sweden, to significantly boost productivity and cost-efficiency at the port.

This delivery also includes a Kalmar TR618i terminal tractor. All equipment is expected to be delivered by April 2014.

Cargotec second order for its trailer-based, diesel-powered cement unloader is to be delivered to Turkish construction services company Mussa Insaat Dis Ticaret Ltd.

The unit will have a rated discharge capacity of 300t/h and will be equipped with a double bellows system and dust filter, which Cargotec says deliver high levels of efficiency and environmental protection. Delivery is scheduled for delivery for mid-May.

Elsewhere, Trelleborg has launched its latest Barometer Report survey, designed to gather the latest insights and opinions from across the marine industry.

For the first time, the report will be split into two sections, one for port owners and operators, and the other for contractors and consultants.
