Kalmar, part of Cargotec Corporation, has received a repeat order from Terminaux de Normandie to supply 12 diesel-electric straddle carriers for use at both Terminal Normandie MSC & Terminal Porte Océane located at the Port of Le Havre. Terminal Normandie MSC & Terminal Porte Océane, part of Terminal Investment limited portfolio, are MSC's and 2M's principal French gateway terminals with barge and rail intermodal connectivity to the European market. The order was booked in Cargotec's 2022 first-quarter order intake, and delivery is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2022.

The order follows the delivery of a similar order booked in the third quarter of 2021. Terminal Porte Océane offers quick and easy access to all forms of freight transport. Opened in 2007, the terminal features Le Havre's large STS cranes, and it is capable of handling ultra large container vessels.

The terminal has an annual capacity of 550,000 TEU. The Kalmar Straddle Carriers delivered to Terminaux de Normandie will have a four-high stacking capacity and a lifting capacity of 50 tons. Powered by a highly efficient diesel-electric power unit, the machines feature excellent manoeuvrability, quiet operation and easy maintenance as well as a spacious, ergonomic cabin that improves productivity by providing operators with the best possible driving experience.
