Kalmar and Yilport Oslo Terminal extend partnership with new order for electric reachstackers
Kalmar has signed an agreement with Yilport Oslo Terminal Investments AS to supply three Kalmar Electric Reachstackers. This order continues a long-standing partnership that began in 2016 and was recently further strengthened with a previously announced three-year Kalmar Complete Care service agreement. The order was booked in Kalmar’s Q4 2025 order intake, with delivery scheduled for early Q4 2026.
Yilport Oslo Terminal already has a number of Kalmar equipment, such as the Kalmar electric medium forklift and the Kalmar ECO reachstacker.
Bjørn Engelsen, Terminal Director, Yilport Oslo Terminal: “We selected Kalmar’s electric reachstackers to further reduce our CO₂ emissions and advance our environmental goals. At the same time, we needed assurance that the machines could deliver the uptime and performance our operations require. With the strong service partnership, the proven reliability of Kalmar equipment, and the performance data provided by Kalmar, we are confident these electric reachstackers will support our continued operational success.”
Bredo Steen-Gundersen, Country Director Norway, Kalmar: “We highly appreciate our long-standing relationship with Yilport and the journey we have taken together. Seeing their fleet evolve from diesel to Eco machines and now to fully electric solutions highlights their strong commitment to reducing CO₂ emissions. We are proud to partner with them and support their ongoing efforts to achieve their environmental goals.”
