CLdN has increased the 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 North East England and Scotland.
The changes will come into effect from the end of February by adding round-trip sailing per week and deploying higher-capacity ships on the route.
This fleet expansion further enhances CLdN’s ability to ship unaccompanied freight across the North Sea with lower CO2 emissions, reported the company.

Florent Maes, CEO of CLdN, commented: “CLdN continues to invest heavily in both its fleet and port infrastructure, and we are glad to see increased customer support for our freight routes from Zeebrugge to East Coast UK.
“We were pleased to underline our long-term commitment of providing an extensive service to customers for shipping freight between the UK and EU at a meeting with the UK government Maritime Minister, Mike Kane MP, in Purfleet last week.”
Last summer, CLdN announced the start of a multi-million-pound investment in its Brocklebank terminal at the Port of Liverpool.
