We’re committed to a modal shift: more rail, barge and shortsea, less road transport. With direct maritime access to the North Sea and strong hinterland connections – including regular liner services – we’re perfectly connected to the world. No congestion, just full-speed efficiency. Navigate the future with our green and seamless logistics.
Eight countries, one corridor. And we have a prime location, offering the ideal multimodal junction for smooth trade between Western and Southern Europe.
From the North Sea to the Baltic — with our port as the ideal multimodal anchor point for trade between Northern and Eastern Europe.
With solid routes to Germany and regular liner services to the UK, plus on-site border control posts, we keep your cargo moving – smooth and secure.
Our port is the vital link between Europe’s main ports and France’s hinterland. And with the Seine–Scheldt connection, that role is only set to grow.
Connecting sustainably and smoothly – that’s our compass. We take the lead in shifting to rail and inland shipping, offering a range of efficient transport options to and from the hinterland.
Shortsea makes up an impressive 70% of maritime traffic in our port – connecting us sustainably to the UK, Nordics, the Baltics, the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, Turkey and North Africa.
Deepsea shipping drives our global connectivity. Massive volumes flow in and out by sea, and get processed right at our quays.
No one sails like we do. Inland shipping takes the lead at North Sea Port, making up nearly 60% of transport. Regular services let us bundle cargo smartly. Sustainable, efficient and free from traffic – tonnes moved, CO₂ reduced.
We’re on track with rail! It now accounts for nearly 10% of our modal split, with over 300 trains leaving our port every week. Meanwhile, we’re actively working on new rail projects – in close cooperation with our partners.
With over 30%, road transport keeps a firm place in our logistics. We boost electrification, autonomous transport and alternative fuels – all while charting a course toward a greener transport mix of rail and inland shipping.
Pipelines move 15 to 16 million tonnes each year, mostly liquids. We’re charting new options to make logistics and industry – in and beyond the port – more sustainable for the future.
We’re setting course for sustainable logistics. A strong focus on inland shipping, rail development and cargo bundling helps us shift flows off the road. With electric trucks, we’re navigating smart last-mile solutions – improving access and shrinking our footprint.
Why? Because sustainable logistics equals smart logistics. With efficient routes by water, rail and last-mile delivery, companies save time, cut costs and lower emissions. This way, we offer a future-proof location for more sustainable entrepreneurship and growth.
