First Vietnamese order for Terex RTGs

Vietnam’s port of Haiphong has ordered 12 Terex Port Solutions (TPS) E-RTG rubber-tyred gantry cranes for delivery at the end of 2014. The order also includes an option for Haiphong Port to purchase six additional gantry cranes.

Haiphong, the largest port in northern Vietnam and the second largest in the country, lies 100 km to the east of Vietnam’s capital Hanoi and with rapidly growing volumes, is positioning itself as a hub for Asian goods transport between Vietnam, Laos and China.

Phung Xuan Ha, the port’s deputy general director said “The growth rates are enormous. With the new gantry cranes from Terex, we will systematically further expand the capacities of our terminals.”
