With extensive experience, in-house design-engineering office and in-house software development team, “RIKON” is capable of producing a vast array of heavy lifting equipment, but the key and serial products of the company are Double Jib Level Luffing Cranes and Rail Mounted Gantry Container Cranes.<\/p>\n\n
During the last 2 years “RIKON” has not only solidified its position as a leader in the Baltic region but has also emerged as a prominent supplier on the global stage. The company has successfully designed and delivered cranes for international markets, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Spain, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan. The growing reputation of “RIKON”, coupled with positive client feedback, has opened doors for contracts in Slovakia and multiple agreements in Turkey, as well as in Berlin, Germany’s capital.<\/p>\n\n
Entering the German market marks a significant milestone for “RIKON”, as it establishes itself amidst the world\u2019s leading industry competitors. Achievements of “RIKON” are further evidenced by a repeat order from ADIF, the Spanish state railroad operator, for three A-RMG (automatic gantry cranes). This places RIKON among a select group of companies with expertise in supplying fully automated cranes.<\/p>\n\n
A significant advantage for “RIKON” lies in its robust production complex located at Tvaika Street 68B in Riga, Latvia, set within the port area. This facility allows for comprehensive in-house crane production, ensuring stringent quality control throughout the manufacturing process. Additionally, the presence of a quay facilitates direct shipment of cranes from the factory, presenting a notable advantage for customers.<\/p>\n\n
Recognizing the increasing interest in its products and the growing volume of orders, “RIKON” is actively investing in the expansion and modernization of its manufacturing capabilities, as well as strengthening its brand presence in the global market. Currently, “RIKON” is engaged in several tenders in France, Morocco, Vietnam, and Spain, with a particular focus on projects in France. Having previously supplied a crane for the Grand Port of Marseille in 2021, “RIKON” is now poised to enhance its foothold in the French market.<\/p>\n\n
One of “RIKON” key clients is the Riga Central Terminal (RCT), the largest multifunctional stevedoring company in Latvia, which has been providing terminal and cargo handling services since 1996. With a diverse array of berths, convenient access routes, and an internal broad gauge rail fleet, “RCT” boasts one of the most comprehensive terminal infrastructures in the Baltic States. Specializing in the handling of bulk, general cargo, containers, and Ro-Ro cargo, “RCT” is equipped to manage an extensive range of cargo operations.<\/p>\n\n
To date, “RIKON” has supplied five cranes to “RCT”, originally utilized for coal handling. Over time, however, two RIKON RPS-1600 cranes and one RPS-1680 crane have been successfully repurposed for container handling. Remarkably, despite their initial design for coal operations, “RIKON” cranes now accommodate nearly all container handling at Riga Central Terminal, highlighting the versatility of the Double Jib Level Luffing Cranes, which can efficiently manage any type of cargo.<\/p>\n\n
In conclusion, “RIKON” is committed not only to cultivating a strong brand, but also to glorify Latvian industry, as proudly stated by the company\u2019s economic director, Alina Deimonta. “RIKON” is one of the few companies capable of designing and manufacturing such huge, yet intelligent machines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
