Cargo
Over 1.7 million tonnes of bulk cargo pass through the Port of Thyboron each year
Commercial port for reliable and efficient cargo handling
The Port of Thyboron has an ideal location on the Danish North Sea coast, with ample space for temporary cargo storage, a short distance by road to production companies in Denmark, safe navigation in any weather conditions, deep draught, and easy access to an uncongested road network. As a result, more than 1.7 million tonnes of cargo are handled by the port every year, and this volume is steadily increasing. Three categories of cargo are seeing a lot of activity at the port today.
Reliable cargo transport via the North Sea
The Port of Thyboron is a strategic choice for cargo to and from Danish production facilities. With a geographical location right beside the North Sea, all-weather navigation due to its unique east-facing harbour entrance and easy access from quays to the highway, the port guarantees easy and reliable cargo handling.
Numerous logistics possibilities
At a time when the environment is a key factor and new solutions are needed for transport, logistics and energy, good logistical opportunities can be crucial. The Port of Thyboron supports this trend.
New port expansion for cargo activities
Quayside land is crucial to logistics optimisation. 150,000 square metres of new quayside land for cargo activities will be established during 2022. This imminent port expansion will mean great opportunities for expanding current activities or establishing a new logistics company at the Port of Thyboron.
No more than 500 metres from quay to main road
The Port of Thyboron is being expanded away from the town centre, parallel to the main road. The maximum distance from the quay to the main road is therefore 500 metres, no matter where in the port the ships berth, and trucks do not have to pass through a busy town centre. Combined with navigation in any weather conditions, this is a key parameter for reliable transport logistics.
Infrastructure in the hinterland
Port facilities dedicated to cargo activities

Rail transport can be developed
The Port of Thyboron has railway tracks that run directly onto Tobiskaj in Industrihavnen. Trains up to 250 metres in length can be shunted. The tracks to the harbour are operated by Midtjyske Jernbaner, which transports many freight carriages to and from FMC, located 10 kilometres from the port. Many types of goods can be transported from the port by rail. Examples include bulk goods such as fishmeal, marine rubble or biomass in containers, regular general cargo in containers or project cargo.
