3 Glückstadt
Glückstadt Port Company, a member of the SCHRAMM Group, has operated the outer port in Glückstadt since 1994.It constitutes
the central point of contact on-the-spot for everything related to shipping.
The Port of Glückstadt is located on the Lower Elbe, meaning that it lies within the direct catchment area of Hamburg Metropolitan Region. The port’s strategic lo- cation on the North bank of the Elbe offers the optimal hub for general, breakbulk and project cargo, as well as all kinds of heavy lifts. In addition the port is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for container handling. Various areas of industry, including paper, cement and timber specialists, as well as power stations, are sup- plied through the Port of Glückstadt.
The agricultural industry’s supplies of fertilizers, animal feed and grain are handled through Glückstadt’s outer port. With a complete area of 29,000 sq.m, the port of- fers a quay wall length of 470 metres.
5 Lübeck
Lübeck port operator – LHG - Lübecker Hafen-Gesellschaft concentrates on two main specialities at its facilities: Rolling car-
go – RoRo business and breakbulk. This includes for- estry products – cardboard packaging, paper, cellulose, lumber and steel - profiles, coils, slabs, etc.
Above all in the area of forestry products, LHG has made a name for itself. The Port of Lübeck is the biggest port of arrival on the Baltic for this type of cargo. Each type of forestry product is demanding in its own way, and is appropriately handled by experienced LHG employ- ees. They possess absolutely the right equipment and comprehensive shed capacity covering around 306,000 sq.m.
As a trendsetter in forestry products, and in collabo- ration with customers and manufacturers, LHG is de- veloping the exact solutions needed to facilitate safe, fast and efficient logistics. This, for example, includes customized conveyancing units and clamping pressure tables.

Stade
Stade lies directly on the Elbe between Hamburg and Cuxhaven. On a consolidated area, safeguarded against high water, and
with tide-free access for sea-going vessels, the Port of Stade facilitates the handling and storage of break- bulk and general cargo. Overland, there is very good infrastructure in the Elbe-Weser region. Via the A1 au- tobahn, the port is easily accessible from the South. The port is closely integrated into the regional industri- al structures. There is a high level of competence and experience in the dangerous goods field. Clearance of breakbulk – both liquids and solids – is a hallmark here. As a northern extension, a 24 hectare multifunction terminal complete with a rail-siding is at the planning stage. red

Kiel
Ostuferhafen is the fruit and logistics centre on the Kiel Fjord. From here, the ferries sail out into the Baltic Sea. All kinds of forestry
products are handled and special shipments carried out. Kiel is also very well equipped for heavy lifts and project cargo. A striking example of this is the transhipment of a power station generator weighing 100 tons that was delivered by inland waterway vessel.
Located at the exit from the Kiel Canal, Kiel enjoys un- limited access to the national inland waterway network. This mode of transport is clearly predestined for han- dling major heavy lifts, since transport by road is hard- ly conceivable for such out-of-gauge and enormously heavy shipments. From Kiel, breakbulk and enormous quantities of general cargo are carried by inland water- way craft.
