Liebherr goes Podcast

The Seatrade Maritime Podcast recently aired our first pilot podcast episode with Tim Ladendorf, Global Application Manager for Ship cranes, port, and transshipment solutions. Within this framework, Tim gave valuable insights into bulk handling, current market situation, important trends and future requirements for customers and cranes. Special attention was given to the development of the highly anticipated CBG 500 E, Liebherr's all-electric handling solution. The exciting podcast episode laid the foundation for future episodes.
