Extending the range of mobile harbour cranes
The machine rental service provider Goeyvaerts is expanding its fleet. Founded in 1953, Goeyvaerts started with cranes for barge handling on inland waterways. In 2006, it expanded its offering with harbour cranes.
Goeyvaerts now operates in seven European ports: Antwerp, Ghent and Zeebrugge in Belgium, and Terneuzen, Vlissingen, Rotterdam and Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
At the end of 2019, the company ordered two more Gottwald Model 7 mobile harbour cranes. One will be delivered to the port of Terneuzen, the Netherlands, in the spring and the second one will be delivered to the port of Antwerp in mid-2020. These are multi-purpose cranes that can lift up to 150 t. They will be used by Goeyvaerts’ customers to handle bulk materials and containers as well as general and project cargo. (mw)
