Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler models. The company has focused on cutting operational expenses whilst simultaneously improving the overall efficiency and service levels. Sustainability as well as energy efficiency has been another main focus in the development work of the company.
Cargotec's Kalmar products are the top market leaders in ports and terminals all over the globe where containers are handled by ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, empty container handlers, yard cranes, shuttle carriers, straddle carriers and terminal carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders in the market in each segment of the crane spreader market as well: from mobile harbour to ship-to-shore to yard operations.
There has been an increasing demand to move traffic from rail to roads, other means of transport and barge applications. In addition to conventional terminals and ports, the overall need to develop new machinery has been a focus of the company. Traffic has to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other means due to the fact the existing road infrastructure is unable to deal with the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these modes of transport also come into play. In the future, more intermodal terminals will be developed in the future.
Efficient operations in the terminals require machinery for handling swop bodies, trailers and containers. The intermodal operations machine provided by Cargotec consists of RMG cranes, long and normal wheelbase reach stackers, RTG cranes distribution tractors, straddle and shuttle carriers and shuttle carriers.

Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool for instance has been designed to allow customers to better analyze the machinery and handling systems which are needed for both new and currently existing terminals. The company provides a worldwide service and sales network in order to help their clients solve issues in a network that spans over 120 countries. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the client in all locations so as to be certain they have the solutions their clients require.
