CARGOTEC CORPORATION, PRESS RELEASE, 28 SEPTEMBER 2016 AT 11 AM (EEST)
Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has received an order for five forklift trucks and two
T2 terminal tractors from HeavyMovement S.L in Barcelona, Spain. The delivery

The new equipment will join a fleet of over 30 Kalmar heavy duty forklift
trucks, 20 terminal tractors and three reachstackers already in use at
HeavyMovement.
Ivan Bailach, Deputy Managing Director at HeavyMovement, says: "We have a long-
standing relationship with Kalmar and have always appreciated their flexibility
to adapt to our needs. We work hard to outperform our competitors in safety,
productivity and quality. With the new machines we will be able to decrease our
running costs and improve the safety of our operations. The new Kalmar forklift
trucks will give our drivers much better visibility when working. At the same
time we will be able to accurately track their performance using Kalmar
SmartFleet remote monitoring system. We are also proud to be ordering the first
Kalmar T2 terminal tractors to be delivered to Iberia."
Kalmar DCG160-12 forklift trucks can handle loads of up to 17 tonnes and have a
1200 mm load centre. They have a 180-degree rotating seat, improving visibility
and safety on site. They also come equipped with Kalmar SmartFleet, a solution
for remote monitoring and reporting that enables more effective management of
handling operations while decreasing downtime and improving safety. The two
Kalmar T2 terminal tractors have a gross combination weight of 95 tonnes and
will be used to transport steel from production plants to the warehouses.
