Why Wagenborg?

Our ice class vessels guarantee year-round logistics in extreme winters in the North of Sweden, Finland, Canada and USA. Highest ice-class: 1A Swedish/Finnish.
All our vessels have box-shaped holds to stow mining products and minerals perfectly, such as ores, cokes, aggregates or concentrates.
Many vessels are equipped with removable bulk heads. This allows separation of holds into multiple sections and loading possibilities.
Dehumidifying systems in the holds ensure the products not to become wet and damaged.

Make the best of it for the customer

Wagenborg has a relatively young fleet resulting in quality, well- maintained and clean vessels for this type of cargo. Our people have the commitment to "make the best of it for the customer". In maritime services, in which the weather and other unpredictable factors play a major role, this mentality is of great value for our customers. Because of their geographical location, many of our forest customers need ice-class ships that can also perform in the winter. With our experience and ships, Wagenborg can serve more areas than ships with less or without ice class.
