New Gen 6 mobile harbour crane for Antwerp

With delivery in Q3, the crane will be assembled on site for commissioning and handover in Q4 2023.

The company has ordered the new crane in response to growing demand for its business and an increased focus on efficiency throughout the supply chain. It will be the thirteenth Konecranes Gottwald Mobile Harbor Crane for Zuidnatie.

“We’ve been using Konecranes Gottwald Mobile Harbor Cranes in logistics for over 25 years,” explained Stephanie Feys, chief executive of Zuidnatie.

“As their mobile harbour cranes are also assembled at our site for delivery to other Konecranes customers, we’ve had the chance to see the new crane up close and gain deeper insight into its technology. This convinced us that the Generation 6 would be the right solution for our own operations,” she added.

This order is part of Ecolifting, Konecranes’ work to decrease the carbon footprints of its customers through its offering of co-optimised diesel drives, hybridisation and fully-electrified fleets.
