INTERGIS Co. Ltd. has purchased a Konecranes Gottwald ESP.5 Mobile Harbor Crane to increase general cargo and bulk handling capacity at the Port of Busan in South Korea.
The new Generation 6 machine adds adaptability to INTERGIS’ fleet while the port undergoes considerable reconstruction.
The crane was ordered in the second quarter of 2024 and will be delivered in early 2025.
Logistics company INTERGIS provides services at six commercial harbors across South Korea, including the Port of Busan.
It ordered a new Generation 6 mobile harbor crane to handle anticipated increases in bulk and cargo traffic while reducing carbon emissions at the region’s major logistical hub.
