Terex set for Rio gantry project
3 September 2014Terex Port Solutions has been commissioned by leading Brazilian logistics corporation Libra Terminais Rio to provide 12 of its rubber-tyred gantry cranes to the company’s terminal in the Bay of Rio de Janeiro.
Set for delivery later this year, the cranes will be shipped to Rio from Terex' plant in Xiamen, PR China by the company's Brazilian distributor, Terminal Full Dealer (TFD), who will also unload, commissioning and hand-over on site.
João Pedro? Rotta from Libra's explains: "We are currently handling approximately 250,000 TEU per year, a volume which stretched our previous infrastructure to its limits.
"For us, the 12 Terex cranes are not only extending our fleet, they are also bringing us forward by virtue of their performance and equipment features. Furthermore, they will work in a cost-effective and environmentally friendly manner."
