EMO

Europe’s most modern dry bulk terminal

We are one of the largest dry bulk terminals in Europe, strategically located in the Port of Rotterdam. The biggest seagoing vessels from all over the globe berth along our quays.

Around 80% of the dry bulk products at EMO are transported to the German hinterland by either the extensive rail network or the waterways. We are a logistical partner for customers in the steel industry, silicon metal industry and the energy sector. Continuous investments over the past years have resulted in a highly automated dry bulk terminal which is unique in its operational flexibility and efficiency. Much of the equipment is electrically powered. EMO has chosen to use durable, high quality machines and components with a long lifespan, built according to responsible manufacturing methods. Standards are in place at EMO regarding an ethical, safe and socially and environmentally responsible performance.

In addition to the loading, unloading, storage and transhipment of various dry bulk products, our terminal offers added-value services such as the screening, blending and washing of coal (for the silicon metal industry) upon request as well.

Bulk for life at EMO

Contributing to the world of tomorrow. That’s what we do at EMO. We are an important switch in the continuous delivery of essential building blocks for our everyday life.

The beautiful, iconic Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam, the car you drive, the solar panels on your roof: chances are that the iron ore, coal and other necessary raw materials for these products were transported via EMO. You can even find it in your toothpaste and the socket you use to charge your electric toothbrush! At EMO, around 340 colleagues dynamically work 24/7 on matters that affect and shape our daily lives.

We always do so with the highest level of commitment to both safety and care for the environment – essential when working for or with EMO.

A dust suppression system covers the whole storage area. And water is supplied through EMO’s own comprehensive water reclamation, storage and recycling system. If necessary, stockpiles and open areas are covered with a protective layer as a precautionary measure. To prevent combustion, EMO can compact the stored coal.
