Stockholm Bulk Harbour Ltd brings the world of bulk trade to the doorstep of the Stockholm area. It is strategically-located adjacent to Sweden's largest urban and industrial area, which is home to a core of heat and power installations which burn various forms of solid biomass.
The site was originally a large cement manufacturing complex which processed 600,000 tons of limestone per year, and employed some 1000 people. Its operations were closed down during the 1980's and the facilities were eventually acquired by our group in 2004.
Since that time, millions of Swedish Kronor have been invested in refurbishing the site to support the needs of a growing biofuel trade in Sweden. Investments include resurfacing of the quay and handling areas, as well as converting large warehousing installations to accommodate indoor storage of non-hydrophobic bulk goods.
The port today handles and transports some 200,000 tons of solid biomass fuels annually - primarily imports to some of the region's largest industrial customers in the Stockholm region.
