The port in Antwerp is the largest port in Belgium and the second largest port in Europe based on the freight quantity in tons. A wide variety of different goods are handled here, such as fertilisers, grain, kaolin, coal and ores, coffee, iron and steel products.
Goeyvaerts R. has been active as a service provider at the Port of Antwerp for over 6 years, specialising in efficient high-performance handling of the delivered goods and relies on SENNEBOGEN for this task. The company now has a fleet of 12 SENNEBOGEN machines in different sizes and designs, which are rented, with or without a driver, to companies at the port for efficient material handling. The new SENNEBOGEN 870 M Special, for example, is used mainly to load fertilisers via a hopper or onto a HGV with a 5 m3 clamshell grab. This machine can process up to 700 t of material an hour. Another new addition to the machine park is the SENNEBOGEN 860 Mobile with 21 m banana boom, the new Skylift III cab and 1.5 m pylon. Sales and service Partner: VCM Cramat
