BACKSTAGE WITH CAVOTEC
A LOOK AT CAVOTEC S WORLD Passengers breathe clean, cool air on an aircraft at Dubai International Airport. A container vessel is connected to shore power at the Port of Oakland. A highspeed train travels safely through a tunnel in Sweden. A ship in Australia is loaded with iron ore bound for China. These are moments that occur every day, all over the world. Moments that ensure our world functions that people travel safely, that international trade takes place. This is a collection of photographs showing Cavotec products in their element: powering cranes, mooring ships, fuelling aircraft, and controlling equipment. This is Cavotec: behind the scenes, the invisible link powering the world we see. The majority of the images in this book were taken in 2011 while we filmed material for our new corporate film. You can see the film at cavotec.com Cavotec is founded on the development and sharing of good ideas. This book shows how some of these ideas help ensure the world we live in functions smoothly and sustainably. We hope you enjoy it. Ottonel Popesco, Cavotec CEO
