MacGregor to supply RoRo equipment for 4 vessels
Cargotec handling specialist MacGregor will supply all-electric RoRo equipment for four PCTC (Pure Car Truck Carrier) vessels, the firm has said.
The vessels are scheduled to be delivered to the owner, H-Line Shipping in Korea, by the second quarter of 2025.
MacGregor will supply quarter ramps, side ramps, internal movable ramps and rampway doors to each of the four vessels. All will be fully electric.
“The order also consists of the patented Load Monitoring System, which can boost the load capacity of the ramp and thus provide more flexibility for heavier project cargo,” says MacGregor. “MacGregor’s scope of supply encompasses design and key components including installation assistance.”
“They will contribute to progress towards reaching the common goal that we as an industry have for more sustainable shipping,” said Magnus Sjöberg, senior vice president, Merchant Solutions, with MacGregor.
“Our strong and the most important goal is to expand our fleet list, especially PCTC vessels, and we hope that MacGregor can be a part of our business model in the near future as well,” said Younghoon Sun, vice president, Business Planning Division, with H-Line Shipping.
