Kalmar and MCT close significant order for
eco-efficient hybrid straddle carriers
Kalmar has signed an agreement with Medcenter Container Terminal
(MCT) to supply 20 Kalmar hybrid straddle carriers. The significant
order was booked in Kalmar’s Q4 2024 order intake, with delivery of
the machines expected to be completed during Q1 2026.
MCT, which is owned and operated by Terminal Investment Limited
(TIL), is located in the southern Italian port of Gioia Tauro. The
terminal handles approximately 4 million TEUs annually. Kalmar has
delivered over 200 straddle carriers to MCT since 1995.
Antonio Testi, Chief Executive Officer, MCT:
“Kalmar straddle carriers have been the backbone of our operations
for many years, so continuing our successful partnership was an
easy decision. Bringing more hybrid machines into our straddle
fleet will enable us to reduce local emissions, fuel costs and
noise levels significantly while also offering our operators a more
comfortable working environment.”
Marco Tosi, Country Director, Kalmar Italy: “We
have been working with MCT since the terminal was first opened and
have developed a strong partnership over the years. We are
delighted that they have again selected our proven, eco-efficient
hybrid straddle carrier technology to expand their fleet.”
