Kalmar has won a major order for 14 hybrid AutoStrad machines from Patrick Terminals, set to be deployed at the Sydney AutoStrad terminal.
The order was recorded in Kalmar’s 2025 Q3 intake, with delivery expected to be completed in Q4 2026.
“This significant order demonstrates the confidence that Patrick Terminals has in our AutoStrad solution,” said Karri Keskinen, head of global sales, Horizontal Transportation at Kalmar.
