WAN HAI A05 and WAN HAI A06 are the fourth and fifth vessels in the series of 13,200 TEU containerships built by HD HYUNDAI HEAVY INDUSTRIES.

Ms BY Ha, the wife of Mr DH Lee, Managing Director of TKG Huchems, named WAN HAI A05 and Ms Roxana Hwang, wife of Mr Steve Hwang, Vice President of SAMSUNG SDS Pricing Team, named WAN HAI A06 during the ceremony.

The 13,200 TEU series is designed with a length overall of 335 meters, a breadth of 51 meters, a draft of 16 meters and a maximum cruising speed of 22 knots.

Furthermore, all the ships delivered are certified with “Smart Ship” notations. WAN HAI A05 and WAN HAI A06 will be delivered in mid-October and mid-December 2023, respectively, and will be deployed in the Far East to America services. These new vessels are part of Wan Hai Lines’ efforts to ensure its continuous pursuit of fleet upgrading to provide the best quality service to customers.

Wan Hai Lines upholds the “Sustainable Development, Inclusive Growth” spirit and Wan Hai Lines’ motto, “We Carry We Care”. As such, the company also donated to Ulsan Donggu Welfare Center, the charity that provides residential care to disabled people. It hopes this small token could benefit the local community. Moreover, the company is committed to fulfilling its corporate social responsibility, providing quality service to customers and bringing love to society.
