CLdN is pleased to welcome the first batch of 100 newly branded trailers from Kässbohrer into its door-to door-fleet.

Multi-modal specialist CLdN placed an order with Kässbohrer that adds 100 craneable trailers to CLdN’s multimodal fleet, all of which will operate on ferry and rail routes throughout the Continent, Iberia, Nordics, Baltics, Ireland and the UK.

CLdN and DFDS have agreed to cease the slot charter agreement to allow both parties to focus on their customers’ needs.  

Going forward, CLdN will operate the full capacity of the additional sailings introduced in January this year on the direct route Rozenburg vv Killinghome.

All CLdN companies (CLdN RoRo/CLdN Cargo/C.Ro Ports) will use the common brand name “CLdN” as of 25 April 2022.

CLdN RoRo, CLdN Cargo and C.Ro Ports announced today that going forward, they will use the common brand name ‘CLdN’.

C.Ro Ports have a developing apprenticeship and graduate training programme, supporting the UK at our Killingholme and Purfleet Ports. We are proud to be supporting our apprentices and graduates, by showcasing and promoting the great work they do throughout National Apprenticeship Week 2022

On February 1, CLdN ro-ro signed a contract with Hyundai Mipo Dockyards for two hybrid 8,000 lane meter ro-ro vessels.

Both vessels will be delivered in the first half of 2025.

Today, five new wind turbines were inaugurated on the sites of the transshipment companies C.RO Ports and WWS in the port of Zeebrugge.
