More importantly these cranes will vastly improve our service offering, productivity and capacity, coming with a range of both high and low density grabs with a cubic capacity of 13.5m³ and a 40ft spreader frame.” The new harbour mobile crane was manufactured by Liebherr Austria and was assembled at one of the Port’s bulk terminals within a week. It will undergo an intense commissioning and testing process before becoming fully operational in later this month (April 2011). Huck added: “This delivery follows strong growth and performance by the division’s team and ensures we are well placed for the future.” The Port of Liverpool experienced growth in 2010 in all its terminal sectors including dry bulks, liquid bulks, metals, forest products and containers and continues to further develop its customer offering through the integrated offering of the Port of Liverpool and The Manchester Ship Canal.
