Kalmar's ability to provide quality, reliable and cost effective machines means they are a natural choice for ADT's terminal equipment, and we look forward to building on our relationship going forward."

Kalmar T2 terminal tractor features reliable, driver focused design, an ergonomic cabin, improved powertrain efficiency and modular construction to allow optimised operational performance and lowest lifetime cost of ownership. Kalmar T2 is designed to operate both in the busiest distribution terminals as well as in heavier (LoLo) port operations.
