Kalmar, part of Cargotec<\/a>, will supply additional 20 Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle Carriers to the Port of Virginia, a deep water port in the U.S. East Coast.<\/p>\n

The order, booked in Cargotec<\/a>\u2019s Q3 2020 order intake, follows a similar order from the third quarter of 2019, demonstrating the strength of the Port of Virginia\u2019s relationship with Kalmar and the company’s commitment to Kalmar equipment. The delivery of the machines is scheduled to be completed by the end of July 2021.<\/p>\n

The new units will be delivered to Virginia International Gateway (VIG), which is the port\u2019s second largest terminal and capable of handling the biggest vessels in the Atlantic trade. The Port of Virginia has been using Kalmar hybrid shuttle carriers since August 2015. Kalmar provides the port with support and servicing through a dedicated, local team of technicians with many years of experience and a comprehensive, local parts inventory.<\/p>\n

Kalmar is the leading supplier of hybrid horizontal transportation solutions for ports and terminals globally. With more than 300 hybrid straddle and shuttle carriers delivered until now, Kalmar outnumbers other port equipment manufacturers in the industry by far. With this delivery, there will be more than 100 Kalmar Hybrid Shuttle\/Straddle Carriers operating in the USA alone.<\/p>\n

Rich Ceci, Sr. Vice President of Technology and Projects, Port of Virginia: \u201cThese shuttle carriers help increase the eco-efficiency of our operations by replacing some of the older equipment and support our continued growth at The Port of Virginia. Kalmar\u2019s hybrid technology helps us cut fuel consumption, reduce emissions, increase operator comfort, and improve the overall sustainability of our operations. Overall, we have been pleased with our close collaboration and long partnership with Kalmar. They are always innovative with their eco-efficient solutions and provide excellent support to us with their local team.\u201d<\/p>\n
