Tank transport 

Nijhof-Wassink is an expert in the road and intermodal transport of mainly liquid chemicals. We transport both ADR and non-ADR products. With a widespread international network and a strong local presence, we are your reliable transport partner in Europe. Come and meet our drive for Liquid Bulk Logistics.

Specialists in intermodal transport

The hubs of Nijhof-Wassink have a direct connection to rail and waterways. These intermodal locations are located in Rotterdam and Coevorden and are connected to the ports of Antwerp, Rotterdam and Hamburg. Through all these hubs we optimise your transport flows by water, rail or road. 

The right equipment for tank transport

Nijhof-Wassink knows what it takes to move your liquids safely and quickly from A to B. To do this we have well-maintained trucks with a compressor or pump, single and multi-compartment tank trailers, and tank containers in different types and sizes. Your liquids can be delivered at exactly the right temperatures thanks to the heating systems on the trucks. Our storage location in Coevorden (NL77) is also equipped with steam and glycol based heating installations, so that we can also heat or heat up your products over a longer period of time. 

Safety during transport of dangerous goods (ADR)

The transport of liquid chemicals requires special attention to safety. This is why that attention to safety is a primary part of our corporate culture. We apply the strictest safety requirements when choosing the equipment. Our semi-trailers and containers can, without exception, be operated from the ground. Our drivers and on-site operators (OSOs) are representative, customer-friendly perfectionists who work in a meticulous manner and follow strict procedures. They are trained in ADR and BBS (Behavior Based Safety) and are constantly supervised by our in-house coaches and mentor drivers. 

Innovative Transport Management System

Our modern Transport Management system (TMS) enables us to work even more focused, more efficient and more productive. It is one of the innovative developments of Nijhof-Wassink LIVE with which we establish a real-time connection between your and our IT systems. By, among other things, sharing the order status, the loading and unloading times, the semi-trailer truck location and even your stock level, you and we together are achieving the ultimate digital supply chain network. You can track your transports live and are always informed of the latest state of affairs.
