Kalmar Advances Decarbonization In Cargo Handling

Kalmar, a subsidiary of Cargotec, has introduced a new electric empty container handler. This addition complements its leading range of eco-efficient solutions, including reach stackers, terminal tractors, and forklifts. The announcement was made at the TOC Europe 2024 event in Rotterdam on June 11. The new handler is built on a proven electrical platform, sharing the same electric drive system as the Kalmar electric reach stacker and heavy electric forklift truck. All these solutions are based on Kalmar’s G-generation platform.
          The electric empty container handler is available in a single-stacker configuration with 9 and 10-tonne capacities and lifting heights from 5 to 8 high. The double-stacker configuration offers 10 and 11-tonne capacities, with stacking heights from 5+1 to 8+1 high. All models are compatible with various charger types and feature the proven EGO cabin for maximum operator comfort.
