Terex Gottwald Model 2 harbour crane wins award

Terex Port Solutions has been presented the Crane of the Year award by magazine International Bulk Journal (IBJ) in Hamburg, Germany. The award was presented for the Terex Gottwald Model 2 harbour crane, which was launched in June 2012. The IBJ Awards have been in existence since 2009.

The Model 2 Harbour Crane is the first model within Terex Port Solutions small crane family and has been specially developed for use in small river and sea ports or on narrow quays. It blends the mobility of the classic rubber-tyred mobile harbour crane with the benefits of a drive-under portal solution. Thanks to its tight turning circle the crane is highly manoeuvrable and can be quickly positioned.

Giuseppe Di Lisa, responsible for sales at Terex Port Solutions, said: “With the Model 2, we are offering the customer a compact, flexible, high-performance crane, which is in great demand throughout the world.”
