CLdN has announced a multi-million-pound upgrade to its Killingholme terminal on the River Humber, boosting capacity and sustainability for North Sea freight services.
Planned for completion in the second half of 2026, this investment will:
- Reconfigure cargo handling operations
- Increase storage and handling capacity for all cargo types
- Introduce 5 electric RTG cranes, replacing part of the diesel fleet – cutting the terminal’s carbon footprint by 5-10%
This strategic move supports CLdN’s growing connections between Killingholme and its terminals in Zeebrugge and Rotterdam, key gateways to Ireland, Scandinavia and Iberia.
“This investment signals our strong commitment to UK port infrastructure and further decarbonising operations. Killingholme is a vital hub connecting the North of England with mainland Europe.”
– Florent Maes, CEO of CLdN
