Santos Brasil orders 12 Kalmar E-One2 RTGs
The units were ordered to equip the newly inaugurated Tecon Santos Terminal 4 expansion, with delivery commencing in Q4-2011. The parties have agreed not to disclose the value of the order.

The new units join the terminal’s existing 29 Kalmar RTGs, empty container handlers, reachstackers and heavy-duty forklifts from Cargotec.
