TOC EUROPE 2025


The association’s key areas of focus


are the environment, safety, security and performance within the port and terminal industry. Its latest information paper on diesel and alternative power is intended to provide a high-level overview of current and potential alternative fuels used in mobile cargo handling equipment in the port and terminal industry. Specific emphasis is on emissions reduction as the driver for investigating and selecting alternative fuels.


In addition, PEMA members are invited


to an exclusive members-only arrival drinks reception to reconnect with industry colleagues and friends. Furthermore, PEMA President Achim Dries is part of the speaker line-up on Wednesday. ‘A Conversation with PEMA’ takes place from 10:30am in the TECH TOC Theatre.


Advanced optimisation At TOC Europe 2025, Kaleris will announce the latest addition to its portfolio of advanced optimisation solutions. Terminal Truck Optimization (TT-O) empowers operators to take a smarter approach to scheduling and dispatching moves to terminal tractors. An early adopter of the technology was Port


of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP), Malaysia’s largest transshipment hub. PTP worked with Kaleris to help it develop and refine the product. Using the solution to strategically plan truck movements across multiple zones, drivers received their job assignments 44% faster, leading to a 13% reduction in truck cycle time. PTP’s workforce leveraged this step change to set a new record for the terminal of 14,914 quayside moves in a single 12-hour shift, peaking at 1,420 moves in one hour. Kaleris, the world’s largest provider of


terminal operating systems, developed TT-O to integrate with the latest version of the company’s N4 terminal operating system (TOS). The solution uses enhanced logic to assign truck moves, with automated strategy adaptation to dynamically respond to changing yard conditions. It supports integration with electric and automated equipment, enabling customers to transition smoothly to greener operations and ensure compliance as regulations evolve. N4 modules can also offer more detailed insight into energy usage and emissions, supporting environmental reporting requirements. In addition, Kaleris recently introduced Rubber Tyred Gantry Optimization (RTG-O), to manage RTGs across the terminal yard. It optimises side-loading yard crane operations by improving crane decision-making, simplifying RTG fleet usage, and reducing cost per TEU. Unlike standalone solutions, the system offers a real-time view within the TOS,

enabling operators and dispatchers to minimise downtime and maximise productivity. One of the early adopter customers of


RTG-O, based in Malta, will speak about the benefits they experienced during TOC Europe in June 2025.


Along with visiting the booth, look out for a couple of presentations. One of the early adopters of RTG-O, based in Malta, will speak about the benefits it has brought to their operations. Meanwhile, Carlos Lopez Barbera, vice president of product management, is giving a talk on optimising port equipment to enhance efficiency, sustainability and performance – catch that one in the TECH TOC Theatre on Tuesday at 4pm.


Fleet management tool


Along with showcasing its heavy-duty forklifts, expect Kalmar to highlight its newly launched automation system on booth F40. Kalmar One is designed to work as a flexible,


scalable, standalone fleet management solution. It is an OEM and equipment type-agnostic solution for automated operations. This enables terminal operators to integrate and optimise their operations holistically through one system, and standardise automation solutions and operational models across multiple terminals. With Kalmar One the whole terminal is accessed through one user interface instead of requiring equipment vendor-specific subsystems. Kalmar cites the three key benefits as the


ability to manage equipment from multiple brands in one place; optimised end-to-end logistics flow from stack to quay; and its scalable modularity. Kalmar One provides the flexibility to support different levels of


automation, from remote controlled equipment to fully automated container movements. Juuso Kanner, vice-president, automation business line, Kalmar, said, “By introducing Kalmar One as a standalone solution we are truly enabling automation for all. Kalmar One enables terminal operators to integrate, manage and optimise their entire fleet and operations through a single solution – without the restrictions of vendor lock-in. With a seamless interface between the terminal operating system and automated equipment, terminals can unlock the full potential of their automated assets, increasing efficiency and reducing costs.”


As a leader in its field, Kalmar has also contributed speakers to some of the seminars. Peter Olsson, vice-president of global sales for counterbalance trucks, while Alina Reinhold, director of digital services, is speaking on optimising port equipment in the TECH TOC Theatre on Tuesday at 4pm.


One-stop shop


Leading crane rail manufacturer Gantrex will showcase its capabilities as a one-stop partner for port crane solutions. These include crane diagnostics and parts supply, as well as crane installation and servicing. On booth G42, the company will also showcase patented products such as the HingeGuard Short Rail, engineered to improve driver comfort and minimise crane stress; and the RailLok range of clips and pads, designed for fast, safe, and long-lasting rail fastening solutions. Gantrex is expecting visitors from around the world, so its booth will feature local experts from Asia-Pacifica as well as Europe.
