The largest dry bulk terminal for agri, minerals and biomass in the Port of Rotterdam
We are a multipurpose dry bulk terminal operator with two strategically located terminals in the Port of Rotterdam. The terminals have excellent access to deep-water seaways and to the hinterland by means of inland waterways, rail links and motorways.
Both terminals are equipped with the latest technology in the area of loading, unloading and storage facilities. HBTM not only has onshore equipment (mechanical and pneumatic) at its disposal, but also a fleet of floating cranes and weighing towers. We are a logistical partner for customers in the food and feed industry, building and production industry and the energy sector.
HBTM is a terminal in transition and is investing heavily in new products and services to address changes in market and customer demand. To grow its services in agricultural products, minerals, building materials and biomass, high quality covered storage is required. HBTM is well on track in executing a four-year masterplan to construct a total of 350,000 cbm of additional covered storage capacity at the Laurenshaven and Europoort locations. This will increase HBTM’s total available covered storage to 800,000 cbm. These multipurpose sheds are located at storage areas previously used for the storage of in particular steam coal. Furthermore HBTM has land and berth capacity available for further expansion.
