The new company, MacGregor BLRT Baltic UAB, is a joint venture owned by Cargotec (51 percent) and Western Shipyard (49 percent).
“In Baltic, cargo access equipment repairs and annual maintenance are mainly carried out during dry docking repairs at the yards, rather than having the repairs done in ports between the voyages due to ships’ tight time schedules,” said Kimmo Huhtala, branch and sales manager in Cargotec’s Marine Service. “With this new joint venture we can serve our dry docking customers now more efficiently both in Estonia and Lithuania.”
Cargotec’s local offices in the Baltic take care of practically all cargo access equipment repairs on both ship repair yards: Western Shipyard in Klaipeda and Tallinn Shipyard.
