Storage and transhipment company, Schiedam
Specialised in unloading and loading small seagoing vessels, coasters, lighters and trucks, weighed and unweighed. Cargo-friendly transhipment with grab cranes, minimal waiting times and on-site administration.
A terminal built for the work that larger transhipment companies are too unwieldy for.
Small seagoing vessels, coasters and lighters are our core business, not leftover work. Large terminals are not set up for them; we are.
Inland vessels do not have to sail on to a location closer to the sea. That saves sailing time, and sailing time is money.

The terminal
Directly on the Nieuwe Waterweg, in the port of Rotterdam.
The key figures of the Schiedam terminal: capacity and berth.
Weighed transhipment capacity based on heavy grain. Unweighed capacity is the average per crane.
Nieuwe Waterweg Silo is a family business in Schiedam. Short lines, familiar people and a terminal we operate ourselves. Whoever calls speaks to someone who knows the vessel.
The company has been active in the port of Schiedam for generations and grew along with the scale of inland and coastal shipping. Throughout those years the terminal has stayed geared to the smaller seagoing vessel.
Cooperation
Nieuwe Waterweg Silo and stevedoring company A. Brussé en Zn. share the same owner and work closely together. Where our terminal has fixed cranes on the quay, Brussé is mobile with floating cranes. That allows transhipment to continue away from the quay in Schiedam as well, for instance for larger seagoing vessels in the Waalhaven.
From grab crane to silo and from coaster to truck: this is what the work on the Nieuwe Waterweg looks like.
The terminal operates according to the requirements for feed safety and port security.
Certified for feed safety according to the GMP standard.
