Safe and Compliant Drum Storage in Rotterdam
Our drum storage solutions are tailored to meet the specific requirements of Indian exporters working with chemical substances. Whether your products arrive in liquid, powder, or granulate form, we provide dedicated zones for different chemical classes, ensuring compliance with ADR, PGS-15, and ISO regulations.
Drums can be stored temporarily or long-term in bonded or customs-cleared zones depending on your customs strategy. Our facilities are equipped with sprinkler systems, foam extinguishers, and real-time monitoring, offering peace of mind for companies shipping from India.
We also manage temperature-sensitive or high-risk drummed products with precision and care, adhering to both EU and international guidelines.
Integrated Packaging and Palletized Drums for Smooth Distribution
To streamline distribution, we prepare palletized drums ready for dispatch to wholesalers, distributors, or end clients across Europe. Our warehouse team arranges drums on pallets using secure wrapping, anti-slip solutions, and digital labeling to meet client-specific handling requirements.
We also offer chemical drum packaging services such as shrink-wrapping, re-labeling, UN marking, and preparation for multimodal transport. This enables Indian exporters to adapt their packaging to client needs or EU market standards without repacking at origin.
Our warehouse management system (WMS) provides barcode and QR-code tracking, enabling full traceability of your drummed products from arrival in Rotterdam to last-mile delivery.
