Bremerhaven is one of the most important RoRo ports on the continent. For shipping company Wallenius Wilhelmsen, it\u2019s not just an important hub for services to North America, but also the equipment hub for all of Europe.<\/h2>\n

In the 1950s, with German-made cars in demand all over the world, the demand for maritime transport increased rapidly. The Norwegian shipping company Wilhelmsen and its Swedish competitor Wallenius also started to use Bremerhaven. Initially cars were hoisted on deck with the aid of a shipboard crane, but loads were limited to one thousand vehicles. It was not until the RoRo ships emerged in the 1970s that capacity increased to around 5,000 units. The importance of Bremerhaven as an export hub for the German automotive industry increased accordingly.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the company Wallenius Wilhelmsen, which was formed in 1999 when the two companies merged, became a market leader for vehicle transport by sea. Today, 9,400 employees work here worldwide and load 4.5 million units per year.<\/p>\n

As the number of vehicles grows, so does the size of the ships. A few years ago the capacity limit of RoRo freighters was around 4,000 to 6,000 CEU (car equivalent units), but is now around 8,000 CEU. \u201cBut these ships are no longer used just for vehicles,\u201d says Axel Bantel, managing director of Wallenius Wilhelmsen Ocean in Germany. \u201cOn board we carry not only rolling goods but also static goods that are rolled over the ramps on board with trailers and other specially developed loading equipment.\u201d The German automobile manufacturers are still among the shipping company\u2019s key accounts, but there have been significant changes in cargo flows. \u201cOver the past ten to fifteen years, German manufacturers have increasingly built plants overseas,\u201d says Bantel. \u201cSince then, Bremerhaven has also gained in importance as an import port.<\/p>\n

In addition to the traditional imports from the Far East, an ever-increasing proportion of the cargo comes from the US. \u201cMany car companies have moved closer to key markets in the US to produce popular models such as SUVs there,\u201d says Bantel. \u201cSince demand in Europe has grown, they have been imported.\u201d The ports in North America served by the shipping company all have equal importance, from Halifax in Canada, Baltimore and New York to the Gulf of Mexico and through the Panama Canal. Manzanillo in Panama is the largest transhipment hub for South America, offering feeder services and direct connections to the US West Coast. \u201cWe are the only shipping company that serves all economic regions in North America directly from Europe,\u201d says Bantel. \u201cOur customers supply the American market in New York, California and the Gulf, where infrastructure equipment in particular is shipped to.\u201d Wallenius Wilhelmsen currently calls at twelve ports in North America. There are normally fourteen departures per month between Europe and North America, with Bremerhaven being the first port. Last year, a total of 124,000 cars were exported to the North Atlantic region, and 92,673 were imported.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ module_class=”dtb-sticky” _builder_version=”4.4.8″][et_pb_blurb title=”Facts” admin_label=”Fakten” _builder_version=”4.5.2″ header_font=”|||on|||||” header_text_color=”#ffffff” header_font_size=”16px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”25px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_css_blurb_title=”display: inline-block!important;||background: #002754!important;||padding: 5px 13px 3px 13px!important;||position: relative!important;” border_width_bottom=”1px” border_color_bottom=”#002754″ header_text_color__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” header_text_color__hover=”rgba(255,255,255,0.71)”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.5.2″ _module_preset=”default”]<\/p>\n

2017:<\/strong> Merger to form Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics (WWL) including EUKOR, WWL, American Roll-on Roll-off Carrier (ARC) and the ships belonging to Wilhelmsen and Wallenius<\/p>\n

2018:<\/strong> Group renamed Wallenius Wilhelmsen, while WWL is restructured into Wallenius Wilhelmsen Ocean and Wallenius Wilhelmsen Solutions. EUKOR and ARC become part of the group, but operate under separate names.<\/p>\n

The pandemic is having an effect on import and export volumes to and from North America. \u201cIn April and May, plants in the US and Europe cut back on car production,\u201d says Bantel. Demand has also been lower overall. \u201cCompared to normal volumes, we were at forty percent overall.\u201d Although the shipping company continued to serve all markets, the frequency of deliveries was greatly reduced. The prevailing imbalance of cargo between the US and Europe has been exacerbated by the pandemic. \u201cGeneral cargo is almost exclusively exported from Germany, there is hardly any import\u201d, explains Bantel\u2019s colleague Carsten Wendt, senior manager of high and heavy and breakbulk sales in Germany. The cargo mix in exports has also changed. \u201cWe have fewer cars and more high-and-heavy and breakbulk cargo,\u201d says Bantel.<\/p>\n

Breakbulk and automotive handling specialists<\/h2>\n

Bremerhaven has a great deal of experience in handling this type of cargo. \u201cWe have trained staff, specialist companies such as handling and packaging companies, and stevedoring operations on site,\u201d says Wendt. \u201cNot everyone can do breakbulk.\u201d This is another reason why Bremerhaven, with its extensive cargo base, is one of the largest breakbulk ports in the world. Equally beneficial is the fact that the port is equipped with Mafi trailers. \u201cMany of them are stored and serviced in Bremerhaven,\u201d reports Wendt.<\/p>\n

Bremerhaven is also a major automotive handling site. Alongside Southampton and Zeebrugge, the port on the Weser occupies a central position in the Wallenius-Wilhelmsen Group\u2019s Northern European network. It scores particularly well in rolling cargo infrastructure. \u201cThe site has space for 100,000 units, 50,000 of which are covered,\u201d says Frank Grunau, managing director of RoRo Stevedores in Bremerhaven, which currently employs one hundred people. \u201cFor high and heavy, there are stowage facilities on 300,000 square metres of outdoor space and 20,000 sheltered.\u201d In addition, there are five RoRo berths, each with a draught of eleven metres, in the Nordhafen and Kaiserhafen. Bremerhaven is also an important site for spare parts, repairs and other technical services.<\/p>\n

Both at Bremerhaven and for the company itself, environmental protection is becoming increasingly important. Since 2019, Wallenius Wilhelmsen has been a member of the Getting to Zero 2030 Coalition, whose aim is to bring a zero-emissions ship to market by 2030. The shipping company also works with customers and partners from science and industry to promote sustainable, carbon-neutral biofuels. In partnership with Wallenius Marine, the Group has set itself the goal of putting the first wind-powered RoRo ship into service by 2022. This will be particularly welcome in Bremerhaven, as the port aims to remain a European standard bearer for climate neutrality.
