HHLA Container Terminal Altenwerder GmbH
The HHLA Container Terminal Altenwerder went into operation in 2002 and since then has been amongst the cutting-edge and most efficient container terminals in the world. Processes on the one square kilometre large terminal are mainly automatic. Driverless Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) move the containers around the site and software-controlled portal cranes sort them into storage blocks. The adjacent Kombi-Transeuropa Terminal Hamburg (KTH) is by far the largest German rail terminal. Seven tracks each 720-metres long are available for handling block trains.
