Kalmar to provide 13 empty container handlers to Jebel Ali Port

CARGOTEC unit Kalmar has been awarded an order to supply DP World's flagship terminal, Jebel Ali Port in Dubai, with 13 new generation empty container handlers, with deliveries beginning in the second quarter of 2017 and the entire shipment to be completed by the end of this year.

Commenting on the order, Kalmar's key account manager for DP World, Suresh Ananthanarayan, said: "This is the first order of Kalmar's new range of empty container handlers for the Middle East and Africa. The new product matches the requirements for the region's busiest and most demanding port and demonstrates Kalmar's advancements in product offering." 



Kalmar's new range of empty container handlers was launched in November 2016, and the DCG80-45ES8 machines sold have the capacity of eight tonnes and they can stack eight high.



Every empty container handler in this range comes fitted with the latest EGO cabin as well as with Kalmar SmartFleet remote monitoring and reporting system that improves operational transparency and reduces downtime, the company said in a statement.
