Lázaro Cárdenas, Mexico – October 2025 — APM Terminals has strengthened its operational capacity and sustainability profile with the arrival of a new fully electric super post-Panamax ship-to-shore crane at its Lázaro Cárdenas terminal on Mexico’s Pacific coast.

The newly commissioned crane, part of the terminal’s ongoing modernization program, features the latest electric technology designed to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions. With a 455-meter-long berth and a water depth of 24.5 meters, the facility can accommodate some of the world’s largest container vessels operating on transpacific routes.

According to APM Terminals, this addition enhances the terminal’s ability to handle ultra-large ships and reinforces its commitment to safe, efficient, and sustainable operations. The company emphasized that the crane supports the terminal’s goal to deliver consistent productivity while advancing APM Terminals’ decarbonization strategy.

The investment aligns with the company’s long-term vision to offer cleaner, smarter logistics solutions and maintain its position as a key gateway for Mexico’s international trade.
