Deploy robust heavy lifting solutions engineered to sustain continuous maritime logistics, heavy-container cycling, and harsh coastal storage environments.
Equatorial Guinea is establishing itself as a crucial maritime logistics junction in the Gulf of Guinea. Anchored by the Port of Malabo on Bioko Island, the new Port of Bata on the mainland (Rio Muni), and the specialized deepwater terminals of Luba Freeport, the nation's port infrastructure requires high-durability container-handling equipment to manage import-export logistics. The hydrocarbon extraction projects, combined with national diversification policies under "Horizonte 2035," demand a major upgrade in materials handling capability.
Handling fully-laden shipping containers demands reach stackers with exceptional structural integrity and optimized fuel-to-weight lifting ratios. As local industries shift from oil dominance to forestry, agriculture, and cross-border commercial storage, the capability to move standard 20-foot and 40-foot containers quickly across coastal marsh yards determines operational throughput.
Marine environments present severe corrosion challenges. Equatorial Guinea's coastal locations feature average humidity levels above 85% and elevated saline concentrations, which accelerate oxidation on structural steel and hydraulic components if machines are not specifically designed and coated for tropical marine exposure.
Standard reach stackers built for temperate zones struggle with heat dissipation and humidity in Central Africa. Our custom configuration pipeline implements multiple layers of protection to ensure maximum uptime at Equatorial Guinean container terminals:
Multi-layered polyurethane paint coating, exceeding C5-M marine anti-corrosion standards. All boom joints, cylinder mounts, and undercarriages receive dual zinc-rich primer treatment to seal out saltwater spray.
Upgraded multi-point radiators and oil-coolers engineered to maintain normal fluid operating temperatures in ambient environments exceeding 40°C. Hydraulic fluid loops are continuously monitored by automatic pressure valves.
In addition to temperature control, our container reach stackers are fitted with high-efficiency air intake systems. High tropical dust levels around landward yards can contaminate internal engine chambers. We solve this with dual-stage cyclone air pre-cleaners, ensuring clean combustion for the Cummins or Volvo powerplants, thereby preventing premature wear on cylinders and reducing total cost of ownership (TCO).
Anhui Neto Forklifts Co., Ltd. is a modern enterprise specializing in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of material handling equipment and construction machinery. With over 30 years of industry experience, we are committed to delivering high-quality, reliable, and cost-effective solutions to customers worldwide.
Our manufacturing facilities are certified by ISO quality management systems and SGS, and all products comply with CE standards, ensuring safety, durability, and international compliance. We have a strong R&D team of more than 35 professional engineers and technicians, supporting continuous innovation and product optimization.
To date, the company has obtained more than 30 patents, including invention patents, utility model patents, and design patents, all independently developed.
We utilize advanced production and testing equipment to ensure superior product quality, including:
We offer a comprehensive range of products designed for various industrial and logistics applications, including:
Complement your heavy reach stackers with our robust line of electric warehousing stackers and pallet lifts, designed to optimize internal container depots and localized logistics zones.
Operating in Africa's resource and transit networks requires an extremely reliable supply chain. Anhui Neto Forklifts offers unparalleled security of delivery. By controlling our key fabrication workflows—including structural steel cutting, hydraulic cylinder milling, and testing—we remain immune to standard supply disruptions. Our strategic alliances with international engine manufacturers (Cummins, Volvo) and high-end hydraulic component manufacturers guarantee a steady flow of machines and spare parts to the Gulf of Guinea.
We manage the logistics process, coordinating with major ocean shipping lines from China (Shanghai/Ningbo) directly to Malabo and Bata. Our export experts handle the complex documentation needed for smooth customs clearance, reducing harbor demurrage risks.
Neto Forklifts has established a strong global distribution network, exporting products to more than 180 countries and regions. We work with agents and partners in over 20 countries, including the United States, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Russia, and Turkey.
Our products have successfully passed certifications from internationally recognized organizations such as SGS, TUV, BV, and INTERTEK, meeting the requirements of diverse global markets, including local CEMAC compliance standards.
Global port standards are shifting toward carbon reduction, and Central Africa is actively planning modernizations. To meet this transition, Anhui Neto's development pipeline focuses on two core technologies:
In coastal marine ecosystems like Malabo Port, oil spillage and emission mitigation are subject to increasingly strict oversight. Transitioning to zero-emission reach stackers simplifies compliance with local environmental protection regulations. Moreover, our hybrid models recover kinetic energy during boom lowering and braking cycles, channeling energy back to the storage cells to increase operating range by up to 20% per shift.
We provide a 12-month warranty from the date of Bill of Lading (BL), ensuring peace of mind for our customers operating in coastal Central African zones. Our quality promise covers the chassis structural integrity, main hydraulic valves, and primary transmission elements.
We have an efficient feedback and service system to respond quickly to customer needs:
We offer comprehensive installation guidance, complete physical machine inspection, and on-site commissioning services. Detailed inspection reports are generated before any reach stacker is handed over to the client. Where requested, certified mechanical engineers can be deployed to the customer's port facility or yard in Malabo or Bata.
To maximize equipment life, we offer targeted training modules for local operator teams. Safe weight calculation, anti-rollover device handling, and routine preventive maintenance schedules can be taught directly at our manufacturing headquarters or on-site during commissioning.
