Grangemouth
Forth Ports Grangemouth has a dedicated Forest Products Terminal offering devanning, loading, warehousing and stock management. Products are handled by a modern fleet of forklift trucks, fitted with various clamp types for paper and pulp. Scotland’s principal timber suppliers benefit from the port’s central location and excellent onward transportation links.
Dundee
Forth Ports Dundee has been a forest product specialist for over 35 years, handling newsprint, pulp and timber products; offering a significant timber terminal. Furthermore, our Dundee facilities have been extended to include full timber treatment and additional storage. Service levels are consistently high, and our customers regularly report lower damage rates for their forest products when benchmarking Dundee against other UK and European ports.
Methil
Methil operates as an important hub for a major timber importer, who brings in over 30,000 tonnes of timber per year through the port. We provide cargo handling services, a stock management system, and a pick and pack service for onward deliveries to their customers. Burntisland handles imports for a port tenant and there is scope to handle more 3rd party volumes.
Leith & Rosyth
These two well placed ports also both have experience in handling paper & forest products and we would be happy to discuss opportunities at these locations with any potential customers.
