April 5 - Cargotec, one of the world's leading providers of load handling equipment, is showing its range of products at Bauma 2010 to heavy lift and project cargo forwarder customers.
Vital to heavy lift shipping is the range of MacGregor products that are utilised in the maritime transportation and offshore industries, for the safe and reliable operation of cranes, hatch covers, ro-ro and cargo lashing equipment as well as bulk handling and offshore load handling systems.

The crane will be manufactured at Cargotec's site for Offshore Load Handling in Kristiansand, Norway. The crane will be delivered in the second half of 2010.
