Konecranes

[NEWS] Konecranes is adjusting its operating model to support its strategy deployment and growth ambitions. As of January 1, 2025, our business will be comprised of three Business Areas – Industrial Service, Industrial Equipment and Port Solutions – versus the current two, Industrial Service and Equipment and Port Solutions. The new operational model aims at enhancing growth, accelerating efficiency and continued profitability improvement. “For over two years, we have successfully managed the Industrial Service and Equipment Business Area as one unified entity. This has allowed us to effectively simplify our Industrial go-to-market model and harmonize our product offering, and we feel that we have largely reached the benefits we were seeking when combining the businesses. As we expect our business to grow, we want to ensure that we have the right operating model in place to support our growth ambitions especially in Industrial Service. Despite the change, our common frontlines and customer focus will remain steadfast. I am confident that this change will accelerate our decision-making and position us better to achieve our long-term ambitions,” says Anders Svensson, President and CEO of Konecranes. As part of this development, Fabio Fiorino is appointed as Business Area President, Industrial Service, as of January 1, 2025. Until then he continues in his current role as the Executive Vice President Industrial Service and Equipment, and as a member of the Konecranes Leadership Team. Marko Tulokas is appointed as Business Area President, Industrial Equipment, and a member of the Konecranes Leadership Team as of January 1, 2025. Until then he continues in his current role as Senior Vice President, Business Unit Standard Equipment. And Tomas Myntti has been appointed as Business Area President, Port Solutions, and joins the Konecranes Leadership Team starting October 14, 2024. Tomas joined Konecranes in 2008 and has held various leadership positions in both the service and equipment businesses. He replaces Juha Pankakoski, who will leave Konecranes as announced earlier. From January 1, 2025, the Konecranes Leadership Team will consist of the following members: Anders Svensson, President and CEO Teo Ottola, CFO, Deputy CEO Fabio Fiorino, Business Area President, Industrial Service Tomas Myntti, Business Area President, Port Solutions Marko Tulokas Business Area President, Industrial Equipment Minna Aila, EVP, Corporate Affairs & Brand Claes Erixon, EVP, Technologies Christine George, EVP, Strategy & Business Development Anneli Karkovirta, EVP, People & Culture Sirpa Poitsalo, EVP, General Counsel Further details on the update are found from the full press release.👉https://lnkd.in/gabE4v2e #konecranes #moveswhatmatters #leadership

Last week Konecranes celebrated its new-design of Konecranes Noell Straddle Carrier at the straddle carrier facility in Würzburg, Germany. The prototype was displayed for customers, presenting an opportunity for the visitors to view and discuss the exciting new possibilities it offers. Sustainability was a big theme at the event as the new-design offers customers zero tailpipe emission operation thanks to its complete set of power options. In addition to this, hybrid and battery operation are also available, with a hydrogen operation as a step to be taken in the future, if hydrogen infrastructure develops as expected. The heritage of Konecranes Noell and straddle carriers dates back to 1968. The straddle carrier is a versatile container handling machine and over 3,800 of these have been delivered to container terminals all over the world.
