Last week the first 13 out of 26 hybrid straddle carriers set sail to Générale de Manutention Portuaire Le Havre (GMP). GMP has been using Kalmar straddle carriers since the early 1990s and has now ordered a total of 54 hybrid units since 2020. These eco-efficient machines are helping GMP to reduce the carbon footprint of its operations in line with its strategic goals, with the added benefit of significantly reducing noise pollution. Louis Jonquière , CEO, GMP Le Havre: “Kalmar and GMP Le Havre are united by a shared commitment to safe and sustainable cargo handling. Kalmar hybrid straddle carriers have proven an ideal fit for our operations as we continue to reduce our carbon footprint through investing in product designs which conserve energy and lower greenhouse gas emissions.”

Kalmar has begun production of its electric empty container handler and heavy forklift truck at the company’s Shanghai manufacturing facility. The production launch will be marked by a themed event, "Lift to New Heights," which will be held in Shanghai on 10 April, with customers and dealer representatives participating. “Adding electric empty container handlers and heavy forklifts to our Shanghai facility’s production lineup will significantly enhance our competitive edge. With these investments we are empowering our sales teams and dealers to lead the charge in this new electric era, as well as opening doors to the large forklift market and driving sustainable growth across the AMEA (Asia, Middle-East, Africa) region. Our sales teams are excited about this development and eager to secure more orders,” says Yew Boon Teo, VP, Kalmar AMEA.
