The addition of five new tank pits, housing a total of 46 state-of-the-art storage tanks marks the completion of the second phase of Standic Antwerpen, dedicated to chemicals and circular chemicals. With a combined capacity of 85,000 cubic meters, this expansion not only enhances Standic´s ability to meet the growing demands of their clients but also underscores the company´s commitment to supporting the energy transition.

Paul Voogt, Commercial Director, comments: ´The increasing demand for modern and safe storage of chemicals and liquids prompted us to establish a third Standic terminal. Now, three years later, Standic Antwerpen is fully operational and ready to welcome customers to its expanded facility. With enhanced capacity and cutting-edge infrastructure, we are excellently positioned to provide top-tier services and solutions to our customers in Antwerp and beyond.´

Surpassing our clients’ expectations

The completion of this second phase reflects Standic’s continuous dedication to addressing the evolving needs of its clients and the industry. ´Even as the world around us changes, this new step ensures our commitment to delivering excellence in terminal operations, maintaining the highest standards of safety, efficiency, and customer satisfaction´, says Voogt. ´Our entire system, from tank to quay, is specifically designed for its intended purpose. All tanks and lines are constructed from stainless steel, meeting today’s high standards and expectations.´

Accommodation-rate

´Together with the storage options available at Standic Dordrecht, we are now capable of accommodating a significant part of any storage request as of 2024. This comprehensive range of services allows us to confidently say yes to our customers’ needs. By making our current and future facilities optimally suited for circular and renewable products too, we fulfil our goal of working closely with our clients, supporting them throughout their energy transition journey.´

Footprint-conscious

Paul Voogt continues: ´Our commitment to sustainability and reducing our carbon footprint is evident at our third terminal. We use only green energy, aim to be energy-efficient, reduce emissions, and minimize water and waste. For example, we collect and reuse condensation and rainwater for cleaning activities.´

The future´s bright

´The completion of this second phase is not the end of our ambition to be a sustainable, first-choice European terminal operator. The third and final phase of Standic Antwerpen is planned for 2026, which will add four new tank pits and 60 stainless steel storage tanks. Upon completion, we will have approximately 250,000 m³ of storage capacity for chemicals and circular chemicals. And we’re certainly not stopping there!´
