ZPMC has recently completed the shipment of multiple batches of advanced port handling equipment from its Shanghai base to major international ports in Türkiye, Croatia, and Thailand, reinforcing its position as the world’s leading heavy port machinery manufacturer.

According to the company’s announcement, the vessel Zhenhua 25 delivered three quay cranes to the EVYAP Terminal in Türkiye and two quay cranes to the AGCT Terminal in Croatia, aimed at improving port handling efficiency and overall operational capacity in both regions.

In another major delivery, Zhenhua 12 transported seven automated rubber-tired gantry cranes (RTGs) to Hutchison Thailand’s Laem Chabang Terminal, marking the final shipment for that project.

The cranes are powered by a hybrid system combining conductor rails and lithium-battery technology, designed to lower emissions while increasing precision and energy efficiency.
Equipped with ZPMC’s proprietary intelligent control systems, these next-generation cranes are expected to bring faster, safer, and greener operations to Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC).
