Kalmar has secured an order for 14 hybrid Kalmar AutoStrad machines from Patrick Terminals, to be deployed at Sydney AutoStrad terminal.
The order was booked in Kalmar’s 2025 Q3 order intake, with delivery scheduled to be completed during Q4 of 2026.
The 14 new hybrid AutoStrads will join 10 hybrid units ordered by Patrick Terminals in October 2020.
Michael Jovicic, CEO, Patrick Terminals, said: “The Kalmar AutoStrad plays a pivotal role in operations at our Brisbane and Sydney terminals.
“The performance, efficiency and reliability of the existing fleet has proven to us that this technology is an ideal fit for our business.
“Our investment in hybrid straddles further demonstrates our continued commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and advancing our decarbonisation strategy. We look forward to commissioning the new units within the next 18 months.”
Karri Keskinen, Head of Global Sales, Horizontal Transportation, Kalmar, said: “This significant order demonstrates the confidence that Patrick Terminals has in our AutoStrad solution.
“We are delighted to be able to extend our collaboration with a company that is a true leader in terminal automation and which shares our passion for innovation and continuous improvement.”
Earlier this week, Kalmar secured an order from Rotterdam Shortsea Terminals (RST) for five hybrid straddle carriers, including the MyKalmar INSIGHT performance management tool.
