Shipping & Logistics

Engineering Excellence, Global Reach

Rotterdam Bulk Terminal operates a modern, purpose‑built fleet designed to meet the highest standards in bulk and liquid cargo transport. Our engineering teams oversee every stage of vessel development — from hull construction to the installation of tanks, engine systems, loading and unloading machinery, cargo heating, and tank cleaning facilities.

Each ship is tailored for the safe and efficient transport of oils, fats, and derivatives, with stainless steel tanks and hot‑water heating systems ensuring superior hygiene, faster cleaning, and consistent product quality.

Our flexible fleet of inland and ocean‑going vessels is capable of handling a wide range of cargo types, including dry and liquid bulk, containers, and project cargo. Inland shipping remains one of the most efficient methods for moving large volumes, with push‑barge units capable of transporting up to 15,000 tons of coal and iron ore daily between Rotterdam and Duisburg.

By integrating inland waterways with road transport, we provide seamless multimodal solutions that reduce congestion, lower emissions, and optimize delivery times. Today, inland shipping accounts for nearly half of all cargo flows in and out of the Port of Rotterdam, underscoring its critical role in connecting European industry with global trade routes.
