JERICH Wesel
Jerich Germany operates the Wesel Distribution Centre that has been set up by Sappi. Wesel DC is situated on the edge of the Ruhr areas, 50 km to the north of Dusseldorf in the Rhine port at Emmelsum. Pulp & Paper, which account for 90 % of the total goods (600.000 tonnes) handled each year by the logistics centre, are transshipped via intermodal transport for import and export.
Measuring 155 m in length and with a 50 tonne overhead crane, the wharf is able to manage the loading and unloading of inland vessels that are deployed in the cellulose and container handling sectors. The railway sidings at Wesel DC have been designed to deal with a daily volume of 40 freight cars.
