Michelin AGV tyre

Ports and terminals have made significant progress in prioritising sustainability within their operations. Tyres, however, remain a huge challenge for container terminals, both in terms of maximising their lifecycle and disposing of them when that comes to an end.

Bridgestone introduces new VCLG 18.00R25 tyre intended for reach stackers.

Dongwon Global Terminal in Busan New Port is operating with remote-controlled STS cranes and AGVs.

The funding enables Circtec to launch the construction of what has been described as ‘Europe’s largest end-of-life tyre pyrolysis recycling facility’.

Busan’s newest automated terminal features AGVs produced in a partnership between VDL and Hyundai Rotem.

The Port of Salalah has taken delivery of the first four cranes in a series of 10 super-post panamax STS cranes being manufactured by ZPMC. The remaining cranes will arrive at Oman’s largest container port in Q2 2024 with all units fully commissioned in the third quarter of the year.
