Kokkola IMO CT

Safe, simple and flexible chemical storage

We have built the first commercial IMO field to have authorization from Tukes, the Finnish Safety and Chemicals Agency, in Kokkola Industrial Park (KIP). Our Kokkola IMO CT chemical storage concept includes not just an IMO field, but also our own CHESS warehousing management system.

The Park has 16 separately drained storage fields for tanks and closed bulk containers as well as capacity of 15 TEU for gas tanks. The 1.4-hectare field has a total capacity of 287 tanks (TEU). The site currently has a 4,050-m2 warehouse for solid, packaged non-inflammable chemicals and a second similar warehouse will be completed during 2020.

Our concept provides customers with safe, simple and flexible storage and logistics – even long term – both for raw materials and finished products.

Who is the service intended for?

Our chemical storage service is intended for existing and future production and logistics companies and for mining and forest industries, for example, operating in the KIP as well as for chemical trading companies or companies which handle their logistics through Kokkola.
