SANY: Versatility and Proven Electric Performance

We are proud to be the authorised SANY distributor for New Zealand and the Pacific Region, offering a comprehensive range of equipment, including Reach Stackers, Toplifts, Empty Container Handlers, Forklifts, and Cranes.

Portstar leads the market in electric container handling, supplying electric reach stackers and empty container handlers. These machines offer superior ROI, zero carbon emissions, reduced operating noise, and low total cost of ownership (TOC). Customers experience significantly lower energy costs, with some reporting just $3 per hour with solar power integration. Operators also benefit from responsive, fatigue-reducing systems for improved productivity.
