Cargotec's port technology solutions have been globally recognized container handler units. Cargotec has concentrated on cutting operational costs while simultaneously enhancing the overall service levels and efficiency. Energy efficiency as well as sustainability has been one more main focus in the company's development work.
Kalmar products by Cargotec are leading the market for ports and terminals all around the globe where container handlers utilize yard cranes, empty container handlers, ship-to-shore cranes, reach stackers, straddle carriers, terminal carriers and shuttle carriers. Cargotec's spreaders are leaders within 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 ports and terminals, the overall need to develop new machinery has been a focus of the company. Traffic needs to be transfered from roads to rail, barge and other modes due to the fact the existing road infrastructure is unable to deal with the increasing level of traffic. Environmental reasons for these means of transport also come into play. Eventually, 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 machinery provided by Cargotec includes normal and long wheelbase reach stackers, RMG cranes, straddle and shuttle carriers, RTG cranes distribution tractors and shuttle carriers.

For example, Cargotec's Port Optimizer simulation tool enables clients to analyze what equipment and handling systems are required in existing or new terminals. The company offers a worldwide sales and service network to be able to help their clients solve problems in a network that spans over 120 nations. Cargotec brings their solutions close to the customer in all locations so as to be sure they have the solutions their clients require.
