The work does not stop at the port of Paranaguá. To the east, in the Export Corridor, one of the six shiploaders – equipment used for loading ships – was renovated. In the centre, warehouse 10 is being demolished to make better use of the area. To the west, maintenance is being carried out on the pavement, in front of berth 201. Together, the three improvements represent an investment of approximately R$ 16.3 million. In the East Export Corridor (Corex), shiploader 6, equipment that dumps export solid bulk directly into the holds of ships, replaced the entire translation system, which makes the equipment move along the site’s rails. BRL 9,554,027 were invested. According to the Director of Engineering and Maintenance at Portos do Paraná, Victor Kengo, the improvement guarantees greater reliability, safety and an increase in the useful life of the shiploader.
