Kalmar Corporation, the forerunner in sustainable material handling equipment and services, and CES Srl, an Italian manufacturer of super sized heavy-duty material handling equipment, are today announcing a partnership to distribute and service CES reachstackers over 125 tons globally.

This partnership will enable us to better serve our customers especially in heavy logistics, such as wind energy, heavy bulk handling and heavy container handling industries. We’re excited to be entering this next phase to further support our customers," said Peter Olsson, Head of Global Sales of Counter Balanced equipment at Kalmar.
"We are confident that our partnership with Kalmar will provide our customers with the best possible solutions for their heavy-duty material handling needs," said Giovanni Bolcato, CEO of CES. "Kalmar's global reach and expertise will enable us to reach new customers and markets, and we are excited to work together to drive innovation in the heavy-duty material handling industry."
CES Srl, headquartered in Domegliara, Italy, is specialised in the design and manufacture of traditional and super heavy reachstackers, which are unique on the market in lifting capacity and technology.
