Europe has shown a significant growth for phenol logistic services over the last years. Due to increased European phenol production and consumption Vopak recognized the importance of a phenol distribution hub in the Port of Rotterdam. As a result of this Vopak Terminal TTR specialized in the storage and handling of phenol.

Due to our long-term experience and focus on continuous process improvement, the phenol facility at Vopak TTR meets the latest Safety, Health and Environmental regulations. Significant investments in the phenol infrastructure will further increase our service level to producers, consumers and trading companies storing their products at Vopak TTR.
