According to TPG manager, Luisenrique Navas, the new cranes are environmentally friendly as they reduce fuel consumption by 70% and the emission of polluting gases. “The new equipment complies with international standards, has various certificates and is part of our commitment to the sustainability policy that we promote from our terminal,” added Navas.

In 17 years of operation, the Guayaquil port terminal mobilized 4.5 million containers and invested 163 million dollars

The cranes, which will start operating in approximately 25 days, have state-of-the-art intelligent safety systems that enable risk-free activities, ensuring people’s safety. Likewise, they have sensors that allow greater visualization of real-time work data and translational movements that create confidence in the operator to perform their work in a more agile manner.
