Tianjin Port achieved this by adopting intelligent station technology and an integrated management system for container operation, providing a new solution for container handling technology for the world.

"Tianjin Port has achieved a number of pioneering technological innovations, marking an upgrade in smart port construction," said Chu Bin, Party secretary and board chairman of Tianjin Port Group.
