Acico Construction Co. orders second cement unloader from Siwertell

Acico Construction Co., Kuwait, has placed a follow-up order with Siwertell, part of Cargotec, for a road-mobile unloader. The trailer-based, diesel-powered Siwertell 10000 S road mobile unloader will discharge cement at 300 tph at Shuaiba Port in Kuwait. It will be equipped with a double bellows system to allow continuous unloading operations and a dust filter.

The first mobile unit was delivered in July 2014; this follow-up order will be completed by the end of May 2015. The unit is currently under construction at Siwertell’s manufacturing premises in Bjuv, Sweden. As these units do not require any local civil engineering works, it will be able to begin operations on delivery.

"The growing numbers of satisfied customers placing repeat orders is a great confirmation of the high quality and efficiency of our unloading solutions," said Jörgen Ojeda, Director, Mobile Unloaders, Siwertell. "With its growing experience of operating and owning our mobile unloaders, Acico fully appreciates their flexibility and high capacity. Combined with their low operational and maintenance costs, these factors had a major impact on Acico's decision to buy a second unloader."
