Ports : Cameroonian port orders two Konecranes Gottwald Mobile Harbor Cranes

Régie du Terminal à Conteneurs (RTC), a terminal operator in Cameroon, has ordered two eco-efficient Konecranes Gottwald Model 6 Mobile Harbor Cranes to improve their overall capacity in container handling. The order was booked in Q1 2021.
Anticipating an increase in the volume of cargo passing through the Port of Douala, RTC decided to add to the fleet of mobile harbor cranes at their terminal. They ordered two Konecranes Gottwald Model 6 cranes as this equipment will provide them with more cargo handling capacity and help them raise their terminal, which handles the majority of Cameroonian port traffic, to a new level of efficiency. The cranes will arrive in early August 2021

“Playing such an important part in the local economy, we need to maintain high-quality services for both Cameroonian and international clients,” says Faustin Dingana, Managing Director of RTC Douala. “Our two new Konecranes Gottwald mobile harbor cranes will help us continue to meet increasing customer demand well into the future.”
“RTC already operates a fleet of Konecranes lift trucks and mobile harbor cranes, and the fact that they have chosen us again demonstrates how the performance of our cranes helps them reach their productivity and growth objectives,” says Andreas Czwalinna, Regional Sales Manager for Konecranes Port Solutions.
