The latest climate research proves an urgent need to cut emissions in order to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Konecranes wants to be a part of the solution and has today announced new climate targets that will target emissions in both its own operations and its value chain. The new targets support Konecranes’ efforts to cut emissions, further develop its low-carbon portfolio and mitigate climate risks.

Konecranes is partnering with Pesmel to supply automated warehouse container handling technology that revolutionizes material handling in logistics hubs and distribution centers. Konecranes and Pesmel signed a Memorandum of Understanding on 25th November 2021, to provide the globally available new solution under the Konecranes brand.

Konecranes has won an order for 6 Konecranes Noell Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes from Gemadept-Terminal Link CaiMep Terminal JSC (“Gemalink”) in Vietnam.

The Stockholm-based energy company Stockholm Exergi has ordered a Konecranes Agilon, an automatic material handling solution, for its central warehouse Värtaverket. The order was booked during the first quarter of 2021.

Konecranes has received recognition for its ambitious climate work, receiving an A- rating in the CDP's climate program and a Leadership ranking (A or A-). The measurement is based on the company's 2019 disclosure about its actions in the last reporting year to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and develop the low-carbon economy.

Konecranes has secured a key contract in the delivery of Automated Port Equipment services. The Kuala Tanjung Multipurpose Terminal (KTMT) recently signed a 12-month automation services contract with Konecranes Indonesia.

In the second quarter of 2020, Port of South Louisiana ordered two Konecranes Gottwald Model 6 Portal Harbor Cranes for its public facility, Globalplex Intermodal Terminal (Globalplex). With commissioning planned for September 2021, the cranes will increase capacity for bulk materials and add flexibility for future handling of containers and project cargo.

Konecranes has expanded its award-winning Agilon material handling system to grocery pickups with integrated cold storage.

Konecranes Port Solutions is changing the container handling playing field by giving container terminal operators the ability to retrofit powerful intelligence on their existing container cranes that would not otherwise be available.
