Sarens supports installation in Indonesia

0

Sarens in Indonesia successfully completed the installation of two bridge girders for the Kemang Pratama Bridge project in Bekasi, supporting a major road widening initiative aimed at improving traffic flow and accessibility in the area.

Executed for client PT. Dua Perkasa Prima and project owner PT. Indolimas, the operation required careful planning and precise execution due to the project’s location on a heavily trafficked public road. The new bridge construction is expected to significantly ease transportation and congestion in the Kemang Pratama area.

To carry out the works, Sarens deployed a Liebherr LR1350 and an XCMG XGC400, both configured with 42-metre main booms and SSL configuration. The equipment was selected for its lifting capability and ability to minimise crane movements within the confined work area.

The operation involved the tandem lifting and installation of two bridge girders, each measuring approximately 80 metres in length and weighing 280 tonnes. Given the public road closure constraints, Sarens was allocated only a two-day lifting window, making timing and coordination critical to the project’s success.

The lifting sequence required the cranes to slew, crawl backwards, and carefully position the girders into place with maximum precision. In total, two operators and four riggers were involved in the lifting activities.

Prior to the lifting operations, both cranes were transported by land from the Sarens yard in Cilegon to Bekasi using flatbed and lowbed trailers. The mobilisation process took four days, while each crane required two days for assembly on site.

The project also presented several logistical and environmental challenges. Limited working space, heavy surrounding traffic, and monsoon rainfall during crane assembly added complexity to the execution phase. Despite these conditions, the Sarens team completed the works safely and efficiently.

Detailed engineering reviews, lifting plans, and ground-bearing pressure calculations formed a key part of the preparation process, ensuring that all activities could be executed safely within the restricted timeframe.

By successfully delivering this demanding bridge installation project, Sarens once again demonstrated its expertise in engineered lifting solutions and complex infrastructure operations across Indonesia.

GOLDSCHAMUS relies on KAMAG PT 201

0

Manoeuvrability, speed and excellent all-round visibility support safe shunting operations in the confined and demanding yard environment of food producer GOLDSCHMAUS.

To ensure a smooth flow of materials throughout its production site in Garrel, Germany, the GOLDSCHMAUS Group relies on the KAMAG PrecisionTractor 201 (PT 201) from TII KAMAG. One of Germany’s leading meat producers, the company operates a cooperative business model that brings together agricultural enterprises and combines the production of pork, beef and convenience products under one roof. Since spring 2026, the KAMAG PT 201 has been supporting internal logistics operations and has quickly become an integral part of daily yard activities.

At the Garrel facility, food products are manufactured for customers in the retail and food industries. While livestock deliveries arrive by dedicated transport vehicles, efficient internal logistics depend on powerful and reliable shunting equipment. Refrigerated semi-trailers and trailers must be moved quickly, precisely and safely to support production and dispatch operations without disruption.

The layout of the site presents particular challenges. Narrow traffic routes, numerous bends and limited manoeuvring space require both drivers and vehicles to operate with a high degree of precision.

“The challenge is that our yard has a very complex layout with many corners, and we have to make sure that nothing gets damaged,” explains Manfred Meyer, Logistics Manager at GOLDSCHMAUS.

These conditions are exactly where the strengths of the KAMAG PT 201 come into their own. Developed specifically for the rapid movement of semi-trailers and trailers, the terminal tractor combines outstanding manoeuvrability with fast operating cycles and excellent all-round visibility.

Before making its purchasing decision, GOLDSCHMAUS tested four different shunting vehicles under real operating conditions. Employees who use the vehicles on a daily basis were deliberately involved in the evaluation process. Ultimately, the KAMAG PT 201 emerged as the preferred solution.

“The key advantage of the KAMAG PT is definitely its manoeuvrability and speed. Moving these semi-trailers and trailers and positioning them without causing damage would otherwise not be possible. Our shunting operators chose the KAMAG because it was the best vehicle in terms of speed and all-round visibility,” says Meyer.

Thanks to its compact design and excellent visibility, the KAMAG PT 201 enables safe and efficient manoeuvring even in areas where available space is limited. This not only improves productivity but also contributes to safe operations across the entire site.

Since entering service, the KAMAG PT 201 has quickly established itself as an essential tool within the company’s internal logistics processes. “It’s absolutely essential. Without it, operations simply wouldn’t work,” Meyer summarises. By deploying the KAMAG PT 201, GOLDSCHMAUS has optimised its internal transport processes and ensured a reliable flow of goods between production, storage and dispatch. At the same time, the project highlights the growing importance of specialised shunting vehicles for efficient and safe logistics operations within the food industry.

Vestas publishes third quarter results

0

Quarterly revenue of EUR 5.7bn with an EBIT margin before special items of 8.5 percent.

Order intake of EUR 4.1bn and combined order backlog of EUR 77.9bn. Full-year outlook narrowed.

In the third quarter of 2026, Vestas generated revenue of EUR 5,677m – an increase of 6 percent compared to the third quarter of 2025. EBIT before special items amounted to EUR 483m, resulting in an EBIT margin before special items of 8.5 percent, compared to 7.8 percent in the third quarter of 2025.

Adjusted free cash flow amounted to EUR 99m compared to EUR 508m in the third quarter of 2025.

The quarterly intake of firm and unconditional wind turbine orders amounted to 3,377 MW, a 27 percent decrease from third quarter 2025. The value of the Power Solutions order backlog was EUR 35.9bn as at 30 September 2026.

In addition to the Power Solutions order backlog, at the end of the quarter, Vestas had service agreements with expected contractual future revenue of EUR 42.0bn. Thus, the value of the combined Power Solutions and Service backlog stood at EUR 77.9bn – an increase of EUR 9.7bn compared to the year-earlier period.

In line with Vestas’ capital structure strategy, the share buyback of EUR 400m initiated in August continues until mid-December, in accordance with the authorisation granted at the Annual General Meeting in April 2026.

The full-year 2026 outlook is narrowed: Revenue is expected to range between EUR 20.5bn and 21.5bn (previously EUR 20-22bn), the EBIT margin before special items is expected between 7.5-8.5 percent (previously 7-9 percent), and total investments1) are expected to amount to approx. EUR 1.0bn (previously approx. EUR 1.2bn).

Group President & CEO Henrik Andersen said: “Vestas continued its positive trajectory in the third quarter of 2026 and improved both revenue and profitability year on year, leading to an all-time high Earnings Per Share of EUR 1.14. Growth in Offshore and Service helped revenue increase by 6 percent to EUR 5.7bn, while the EBIT margin increased to 8.5 percent through higher profitability in Power Solutions and improved operating leverage. Increased operating costs at a European offshore project impacted our results negatively, while the ramp-up in Offshore and the Service recovery plan continue to progress. Commercial traction in EMEA and Asia Pacific resulted in an order intake of 3.4 GW with a high average selling price, and an order backlog of EUR 35.9bn. We remain on track to reach the expected full-year earnings, and we narrow the outlook reflecting solid performance in the quarter and improved visibility. The first nine months of 2026 have been characterised by uncertainty and elevated energy prices, and we want to thank our customers, partners, and colleagues for their continued support and engagement in delivering secure, affordable, and sustainable energy across the globe.”

CEVA opens new facility in Entzheim

0

CEVA Logistics, the world’s third-largest contract logistics provider, has opened a new facility dedicated to the pharmaceutical industry in the Strasbourg-Entzheim Airport business park.

Designed to meet the healthcare sector’s most stringent requirements, this new site provides the highest standards of quality, regulatory compliance, traceability, security and cold chain management.

Located in the Bas-Rhin department, the new 17,000-square-meter logistics center is dedicated to managing complex, high-value pharmaceutical operations. Every day, it helps leading healthcare companies secure and optimize their supply chains. Its strategic location in the heart of the Strasbourg-Entzheim Airport business park offers direct access to airport infrastructure, freight operators, airlines, and customs and inspection services, ensuring fast, secure and reliable logistics operations.

The construction of the facility began in 2025 and was designed to meet the needs of pharmaceutical companies handling sensitive products, managing large volumes and facing stringent compliance requirements.

The facility is also fully equipped to prepare shipments securely, featuring an onsite dry ice production system and specialized packaging solutions for palletized freight.

In line with CEVA’s commitment to sustainability and improving site environmental performance, the new facility targets BREEAM “Very Good” and “BiodiverCity” certifications. It features rooftop solar panels, with all generated renewable energy consumed directly on-site to reduce its carbon footprint.
Beyond environmental performance, the site meets the highest international quality, security, and safety benchmarks—including TAPA FSR B certification and applicable healthcare standards—giving customers complete control over their logistics operations and supply chain risks.

With an existing 10,000 m² logistics site already running at the Strasbourg-Entzheim business park, CEVA opened this second facility to scale its operations within a leading pharmaceutical hub. The Grand Est region ranks among Europe’s top healthcare hubs, home to major multinational companies operating along the Rhine Valley. With this new Entzheim facility, CEVA reinforces its regional footprint, now operating four logistics sites in Grand Est—two in Entzheim, one in Sausheim (Haut-Rhin) and one in Vatry (Marne)—representing a combined 90,000 m² of warehouse space.

Pharmaceutical and healthcare logistics require specialized expertise and strict adherence to safety, compliance, and quality standards. CEVA Logistics brings extensive experience to the sector, meeting rigorous regulatory demands through targeted certifications, quality systems, precise temperature management and continuous team training.

Today, CEVA supports more than 500 pharmaceutical and healthcare customers worldwide and operates approximately 50 specialized logistics facilities, underscoring its role as a strategic industry partner.

Amaury Montay, Contract Logistics Director France, CEVA Logistics, says: “The opening of this new logistics facility marks an important milestone in the development of our Healthcare business in France. Designed to meet the needs of pharmaceutical companies, it enables us to manage sensitive, temperature-controlled operations with the level of quality, traceability and security expected by our customers. With this logistics facility now fully operational, CEVA is strengthening its ability to support their growth and secure their supply chains.”

After nearly 9 years with the TII Group, Dr. Gerald Karch has decided to step down for personal reasons and to focus on the next chapter of his personal journey.

With the appointment of Dr. Gregor Wiche as successor, the TII Group is setting the course for a further successful future: effective 1 December 2026, Dr. Gregor Wiche will join the Management Board of the TII Group as Managing Director and Spokesman of the Board. Together with Filippo Baldassari, who has served as Managing Director since January 2025, Dr. Gregor Wiche will form the group’s new management team.

Since 2018, Dr. Gerald Karch has successfully led the restructuring and strategic development of the TII Group. During his tenure, the Group doubled its revenue, strengthened its financial stability and made substantial investments in both its product portfolio and production facilities. Building on this foundation, substantial investments are currently being implemented and will continue in the coming years. As a result, the TII Group is well positioned for the future and ready to build on its strengths, unlock new opportunities and further expand its market and technology leadership. “Dr. Gerald Karch played a decisive role in transforming and strengthening the TII Group. We sincerely thank him for his dedication and wish him all the best for his future. With Dr. Gregor Wiche joining the Management Board, the TII Group is establishing a strong and complementary management team that will build on the strategic initiatives already underway and further advance the Group’s long-term development,” says Susanne Rettenmaier, Shareholder member of the family business founded by her father Otto Rettenmaier.

Dr. Gregor Wiche brings extensive and successful leadership experience to TII. He held executive roles in Asia and Europe across different functional areas in industries ranging from paper machinery across rail to commercial vehicle components. He joins the TII Group from Driventic GmbH, which he led and successfully carved out into a stand-alone entity within the Voith Group over the last three years.

“We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Gregor Wiche and look forward to working with him and Filippo Baldassari as they continue to drive the Group’s strategic development,” says Susanne Rettenmaier.

The change in the management board of the TII Group marks the conclusion of an important chapter in the development of the TII Group. The transition has been prepared well in advance to ensure stability and continuity for customers, partners and employees.

“Over the past years, we have worked together to strengthen the TII Group, sharpen its strategic focus and build a solid foundation for the future. I am particularly proud of what the entire TII team has achieved together. With a carefully prepared transition, I feel that the time is right for me to hand over my responsibilities to the new management team,” says Dr. Gerald Karch.

The new management team will accelerate innovation, strengthen customer proximity and advance operational excellence across the Group. Its agenda also includes the continued expansion of TII Group’s market and technology leadership and the implementation of ongoing investments in products and production facilities.

As Managing Director and Spokesman of the Board of the TII Group, Dr. Gregor Wiche will oversee the functions of Operations, Engineering, Human Resources, Finance and Controlling. Filippo Baldassari will continue to lead the market-facing functions of Sales, Service, Marketing and Business Development.

“TII Group has a strong market position, outstanding technological capabilities and a clear ambition for the future. I look forward to jointly working with Filippo Baldassari and the whole TII community around the world to increase operational excellence, turn innovation into value for our customers and drive TII to the next level,” says Dr. Gregor Wiche.

In parallel with the management transition, the shareholder family has decided to establish a new holding structure. The new top holding company, TII Group GmbH & Co. KG, will also be managed by Dr. Gregor Wiche and Filippo Baldassari as Managing Directors.

As part of this organizational development, Susanne Rettenmaier will step down from her previous role as managing director of the family holding and join the Supervisory Board. In this role, Susanne Rettenmaier will continue to uphold the interests and values of the Otto Rettenmaier family together with the family owners and the Supervisory Board members and ensure a close and lasting connection between the shareholder family and the TII Group.

He held executive roles in Asia and Europe across different functional areas in industries ranging from paper machinery across rail to commercial vehicle components. He joins the TII Group from Driventic GmbH, which he led and successfully carved out into a stand-alone entity within the Voith Group over the last three years.

“We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Gregor Wiche and look forward to working with him and Filippo Baldassari as they continue to drive the Group’s strategic development,” says Susanne Rettenmaier.

The change in the management board of the TII Group marks the conclusion of an important chapter in the development of the TII Group. The transition has been prepared well in advance to ensure stability and continuity for customers, partners and employees.

“Over the past years, we have worked together to strengthen the TII Group, sharpen its strategic focus and build a solid foundation for the future. I am particularly proud of what the entire TII team has achieved together. With a carefully prepared transition, I feel that the time is right for me to hand over my responsibilities to the new management team,” says Dr. Gerald Karch.

The new management team will accelerate innovation, strengthen customer proximity and advance operational excellence across the Group. Its agenda also includes the continued expansion of TII Group’s market and technology leadership and the implementation of ongoing investments in products and production facilities.

As Managing Director and Spokesman of the Board of the TII Group, Dr. Gregor Wiche will oversee the functions of Operations, Engineering, Human Resources, Finance and Controlling. Filippo Baldassari will continue to lead the market-facing functions of Sales, Service, Marketing and Business Development.

“TII Group has a strong market position, outstanding technological capabilities and a clear ambition for the future. I look forward to jointly working with Filippo Baldassari and the whole TII community around the world to increase operational excellence, turn innovation into value for our customers and drive TII to the next level,” says Dr. Gregor Wiche.

In parallel with the management transition, the shareholder family has decided to establish a new holding structure. The new top holding company, TII Group GmbH & Co. KG, will also be managed by Dr. Gregor Wiche and Filippo Baldassari as Managing Directors.

As part of this organizational development, Susanne Rettenmaier will step down from her previous role as managing director of the family holding and join the Supervisory Board. In this role, Susanne Rettenmaier will continue to uphold the interests and values of the Otto Rettenmaier family together with the family owners and the Supervisory Board members and ensure a close and lasting connection between the shareholder family and the TII Group.

Jumbo Offshore completes transport and installation

0

Jumbo Offshore has announced the successful completion of its transport and offshore installation scope for the Vaca Muerta Oil Sur (VMOS) project in Argentina.

The campaign supports the development of a major new oil export terminal near Punta Colorada, which will be connected to Argentina’s Vaca Muerta formation by a 437 km pipeline.

Contracted by Altius S.A., Jumbo deployed its DP2 heavy-lift vessel Jumbo Javelin to transport two CALM buoys weighing approximately 340 t each and two Pipeline End Manifolds (PLEMs) weighing up to 232 t. The project was secured with the local support from the JSI Alliance.

The campaign began in Muscat, Oman, where the cargo was lifted onboard by the Jumbo Javelin in a double-banking, ship-to-ship heavy-lift operation. Following loading and seafastening, the vessel sailed to Argentina via the Cape of Good Hope.

Upon arrival in Argentina, Jumbo carried out the offshore installation of both PLEMs at approximately 40 m water depth using the vessel’s DP capabilities, alongside the successful discharge of both CALM buoys.

The VMOS marine terminal, located approximately 5–8 km offshore Punta Colorada, will facilitate the export of oil from Argentina’s Vaca Muerta formation to Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs). The project is designed for an initial capacity of up to 550,000 barrels per day, with the potential to increase to 700,000 barrels per day.

Freek Muurling, Project Manager at Jumbo Offshore, commented, “This project demonstrates Jumbo Offshore’s integrated heavy-lift transport and offshore installation capabilities, supporting the development of important energy infrastructure around the world. I’m proud of what our team has accomplished throughout this challenging campaign. From the ship-to-ship loading operation in Muscat and the safe transport of the CALM buoys and PLEMs, to the successful offshore installation of both PLEMs and discharge of the buoys in Argentina, it has been a tremendous team effort. My thanks go to everyone involved, both onboard and ashore, and to our project partners for their flexibility, support and cooperation throughout the campaign.”

VMOS commented, “Throughout this demanding journey, across long distances and challenging hurdles, Jumbo lived up to its name, showing resilience, teamwork, improvisational skills, good communications and a clear sense of our common goal. Well done!”

With Jumbo’s scope now successfully completed, work continues on the wider VMOS development ahead of the terminal’s future start-up and first oil exports.
