Van den Bosch recently took over the activities of Tankspeed Logistics in Newport, South Wales. The acquisition is intended to strengthen Van den Bosch's position in the inter-modal transport of dry bulk products in Europe. Tankspeed was founded in 2005 as Tankspeed-Fraikin by Mitzi Walker and Manfred Fraikin. Since 2015, all shares have been owned by managing director Mitzi Walker, with the company operating under the name Tankspeed Logistics. The core business consists of the transport of dry bulk products for the chemical industry, such as PVC powder and minerals. These activities take place in the United Kingdom and between the Benelux and the UK. In recent years, Van den Bosch has invested in expanding its dry bulk activities in Europe, particularly in pressurized silo containers. Tankspeed also focuses on this segment. "With the acquisition of Tankspeed Logistics, we are strengthening our position as the market leader in transport with pressurized silo containers in Europe and are committed to further developing our business in the UK," said Barry Gruijters, operations director for Van den Bosch's dry bulk division. |
