The port of Zeebrugge in Belgium has seen a 3% increase in the volume of finished vehicles processed through 2021 compared to the previous year, bringing the number of vehicles handled to 2.26m.
That figure was part of an overall increase in total tonnage handled of 4.6% to just under 50m tons.
Zeebrugge is one of the world’s busiest ports handling ro-ro cargo, and its finished vehicle terminals processed the greatest number of vehicles amongst the European ports again last year.
The port has seen a number of investments designed to make operations more sustainable in 2021, as well as continuing with infrastructure developments to increase efficiency.
