The company has been awarded the contract to provide a new gantry crane for the Austrian terminal, currently under reconstruction in order to meet the needs of trimodal transport.

Künz's crane features a double-sided cantilever and a slewing trolley and by 2021 it will span two adjoined barges, four railway tracks, a truck-loading and driving lane each, a working area for mobile handling equipment, as well as a storage area. The telescopic piggy-back spreader will stack containers of each type one over five over a width of 40 m.
