CLdN Cargo NV, a leading provider of integrated, multimodal transport solutions, has selected Qargo as its technology partner for the implementation of a new Transport Management System (TMS) to support and enhance its operations. 

Today, CLdN published its 2025 Carbon Report. Highlights include: 

CLdN today published its fleet emission data for 2024. CLdN’s weighted average fleet emissions were 37g CO2/tonne-km (vs 39g CO2/tonne-km in 2023). This was 9% better than CLdN’s next-best performing short sea competitor, more than 30% better than the peer group average and twice as efficient as road transport by heavy goods vehicle. This directly benefits all CLdN customers and the supply chains they serve by reducing the scope 3 emissions of their cargo.  

CLdN today announced plans to develop a river berth for roll-on / roll-off cargo vessels at the port of Liverpool. The project is being planned in collaboration with Peel Ports Group and would represent a major, multi-million-pound investment for the Irish Sea market. The announcement was made at a Ministerial Maritime Regional Investment Roundtable organised by the UK Department for Transport and Liverpool City Region Combined Authority as part of London International Shipping Week 2025.

Following P&O Ferries’ recent decision to close its Zeebrugge - Teesport freight service, CLdN wishes to assure all customers of its long-term commitment to its established Teesport freight shipping service. CLdN will now explore an expansion of its Zeebrugge - Teesport route, but is also considering setting up a new Rotterdam - Teesport freight route if customer demand proves to be supportive.   

CLdN today announced a 25% capacity increase on its Liverpool – Dublin service. The increase will be achieved through the deployment of larger vessels* with a higher cargo capacity than those currently serving the route. The change to higher capacity vessels will also provide environmental benefits as the use of these larger ships will reduce customers’ CO2 emissions per tonne of transported cargo by up to 50%.

CLdN today announced the launch of a new weekly service between Zeebrugge and Ireland. CLdN has chartered an 800 TEU lift-on / lift-off (LoLo) cargo vessel (M/V JSP Rover)  that will ship container cargo between its Albert II terminal in Zeebrugge and Cork / Dublin.   The introduction of the new LoLo service will also enable a further optimization of CLdN’s roll-on / roll-off (RoRo) fleet deployment, thereby increasing customer options on the routes between Zeebrugge and Ireland.

CLdN today announced a major investment plan for its terminal at Killingholme on the river Humber. The project will be completed in the second half of 2026.  

The investment will lead to a significant enhancement of cargo handling capabilities at the terminal and will cater for projected volume growth on CLdN’s North Sea connections between Killingholme and CLdN’s terminals in Rotterdam and Zeebrugge.  

The infrastructure upgrades at the terminal have improved the use of space and will enhance the flow of cargo movements. A new gate set-up and terminal operating system will provide an improved customer experience for dropping off and picking up cargo.  

CLdN has announced an increase in frequency and freight capacity on its Zeebrugge-Teesport route. 

This increase is driven by growing customer demand for the service which provides direct and reliable access for freight units to and from the North East England and Scotland.
