Konecranes dividend policy remains valid and aims to pay a stable to increasing dividend per share, over the cycle.
Konecranes’ commitment to driving the material handling industry towards a more sustainable future – an effort that has been recognized externally by leading bodies/organizations including the CDP – will remain at the core of how it operates. Konecranes aims to have carbon neutral own operations by 2030 and continues its work to limiting global warming to 1.5°C and creating carbon-neutral supply chains.
Demand outlook
Half-year financial report January-June 2026
July 24, 2026
Within the industrial customers segment, we expect our demand environment to remain on a healthy level. For our port customers, container throughput continues to be on a high level, and the long-term prospects for container handling remain good. However, uncertainty related to geopolitics and trade policy tensions remains high.
