A multimodal logistics platform for
sensitive products and dangerous goods
1/1
G
enerally speaking, it is difficult to go beyond the general data on the transport,
volume transported, supply chain and warehousing of sensitive products and dangerous
goods. The data is rarely catalogued and very little information is published on
transport activity, storage, distribution and logistics in general. In addition, the French
classification of activities does not always allow access to the market.
It is for this reason that we carried out a highly documented prospective study
between 2009 and 2010 with ASCONIT, involving the major players in the market:
manufacturers, haulage contractors and logistics coordinators.

Storing products that present little risk in small quantities,
requires special handling conditions when they are stored in
greater quantities. The companies affected by this have an
increasing need for logistics facilities that are specially equipped
to deal with sensitive products and dangerous goods due to
tougher environmental and safety regulations.
At the present time there are only a handful
of ‘AS’ facilities and few of these offer true
storage solutions for DG. Ideally, they should be
multimodal and flexible, with one area set aside for
warehousing goods on palettes and another for
goods that travel by container.
> Covered warehouses for DG palettes
> Rail-road terminal for accommodating
containers, freight wagons, and DG cisterns or
dry lorry trailers.
1b The aims of the project
This project is anticipating the changes linked to the
sensitive products and dangerous goods logistics
chain, reinforcing intermodal transport in an ecofriendly and societal manner. It is responding to a
specific demand that has so far not been met.
> It will provide a safe environment for storing DG,
over and above transport regulations.
> It will organise sustainable development taking
into account biodiversity, energy efficiency and
its carbon footprint.
> It will set up a societal process that will ensure
employment in the area and reliability for the
social economy.

1c Who has this project been
created for?
This project is responding to the expectations of
professionals and will provide a true alternative
to the logistics services currently on offer in the
ports of Zeebrugge, Antwerp and Rotterdam,
whilst maintaining the safety of all individuals,
property and the environment.
> Shipping companies,
manufacturers and distribution
companies will be provided with a safe,
apportioned and flexible solution.
> Supply chain service providers will be provided
with an economic, collaborative and efficient
solution for bulk transport.
1d A network of DG platforms in
France
The project is part of a network of similar
multimodal platforms being set up on a northsouth axis, between the North Sea/The English
Channel and the Mediterranean.
> Ongoing development:
• Nord (north): Grand Port Maritime de
Dunkerque
• Région Centre Est (centre-east region):
Sud-Lyon (southern Lyon): Saint Clair du Rhône
> Ongoing location analysis:
• Seine: Grand Port Maritime du Havre
• South: Grand Port Maritime de Marseille
1e The advantages of the project
The major European platform spreads across the
range of North Sea ports. The shipping of goods
between these large ports is organised around
this capital axis which is also the departure point
for land-based flow: rail, river and road traffic
destined for transformation/conversion sites
and the consumer marketplaces of Europe.
> Dunkirk is ideally located on this route and its
infrastructures are truly remarkable.
> The industrial and distribution framework is
close by.
> The consumer marketplace is substantial.

A remarkable site
Multimodal transport is organised around shipping channels, branch
lines, motorway links and connections to the waterway network.
Employment centred on the Dunkirk metropolitan area which benefits from a wealth of industrial experience due to the region’s varied
industrial framework.
2c Solid infrastructures
The geographical location of the platform at the
heart of some of the most densely populated
areas in Europe opens up an international transit
zone in Dunkirk.
The multimodal platform project is aiming to improve on the services currently offered in shipping,
river, road and rail transport.

The economic backbone of the area is part of a
market comprising more than 100 million consumers within a 300 km radius in northern Europe,
including Britons, Belgians, Dutch and French.
The logistics sector is constantly evolving, working
to meet the constraints of deadlines and the carbon footprint both pre and post shipment. This in
turn means that logistics mapping will need to be
modified to the benefit of the ports and consumer
marketplaces.
1. Dunkirk is the port closest to the North Range
rail shipping area benefiting from a three hour
entry/exit window. It is strategically placed on
the North Sea.
2. The Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque is
ideally placed to capture the longitudinal English
Channel/North Sea shipping traffic (20% of
traffic worldwide – 700/800 ships per day)
and is of benefit to manufacturers looking for
specially adapted solutions via an organisation
specialised in logistics.
3. The Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque is the
3rd largest French shipping port from the economic area ranked 4th in France and gateway
to the hinterland and the Continent (100 million consumers within a 300 km radius). This in
itself substantiates the implantation of a multimodal platform in Dunkirk.
Location of the facility – Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque
2b What are the advantages for
the shipping companies, haulage contractors and logistics
coordinators?
The facility offers an alternative long term solution
for storing dangerous goods and sensitive products, when they are grounded for 24 or even 48
hours in compliance with administration rules and
transport regulations (ADR road, RID rail, ADN
waterway, IMDG MARPOL IGC and IBC shipping).
> The pooling of logistic resources ratifies the
growth in productivity.
> The massification of traffic reduces costs.
> Specialisation means security and safety.
6/7
Shipping connections and links
> Shipping links
There are well established shipping links from the
range of ports along the ‘North Range’ of the North
Sea and ‘short sea shipping’ cabotage is already in
place at the Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque.
In addition to the roll-on/roll-off traffic heading for
Dover and Dartford, the port ensures regular links
with Rotterdam, Le Havre and Felixstowe.
Strategically speaking, the Grand Port Maritime
de Dunkerque project makes prevision for the
establishment of a new port group called ‘BaltiquePacifique’ (Baltic-Pacific), extending traffic further
into the Baltic basin. Extending the dock is also on
the agenda.
> Roll-on/roll-off terminal
The roll-on/roll-off terminal at Dunkirk with traffic
heading for Great Britain (Dover) shortens the
journey for users coming from eastern France and
Eastern Europe, with direct access to the A 16 and
A25 motorways.
> Motorway links
Dunkirk is linked to motorway networks by two
major infrastructures:
1. T
he A25 Dunkirk to Lille with connections to
the A1 (Paris), the A27 (Tournai and Belgium)
and the A23 (Valenciennes and eastern
France).
2. The A16 (E40) Dunkirk to Brussels, (Antwerp
and Randstad), the Channel Tunnel towards
Great Britain and the autoroute des Estuaires
(Le Havre).
> Link to Information and
Communications Technology (ICT)
The project is taking advantage of
the fibre optic link to ITC allowing
for :
> The broadcasting and distribution
of succinct data for heightened
efficiency.
> Informational content to be
improved and specialisation to be
promoted which is imperative for
security and traceability.
> Rail connections
The Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque is France’s
first rail port with 12% of all freight traffic, thanks
notably to the heavy flow of traffic in the area.
Regular container rail connections are provided
from Dunkirk to Antwerp and Athus and all types of
container are permitted. Pre and post shipment as
well as trains spot mono clients to Zeebrugge and
Antwerp which are already operational.
> Waterway access
The Grand Port Maritime de Dunkerque is
connected to waterway transport and authorises
the handling of barges and narrow boats, allowing
the river ports of Béthune, Lille and Valenciennes
to be served.
The port of Dunkirk’s currently comprises 100 km
of broad gauge waterways. (This network will be
enlarged with the creation of the Seine Nord Europe
Canal which is envisaged as part of the loi Grenelle
(Grenelle Environment Law).

2d A rich and varied industrial
framework
> Economic hinterland
In terms of the great industrialisation of
the surrounding area, the turnover of its
industries and the number of consumers
in the vicinity, the GPMD is a central
point presenting an optimised economic
solution for logistics and transport
flow. The further we advance along the
production chain, the greater the number
of products that need transporting and the
more complicated the

> Employment.
For many years now,
the Nord Pas de Calais
region has been facing great economic changes
that have needed its major players to adapt
accordingly. In ten years, industry has cut more
than 69 000 jobs in the region which represents
a quarter of the workforce. Commerce has seen
a slight increase with the creation of 2 700 jobs
whilst construction (with 9 900 new positions)
and above all, services (80 000 additional jobs)
are the most dynamic sectors of the decade. In
2010, seven employees out of ten worked in the
service industry contrary to 57% at the beginning
of the nineties. The agricultural sector has also
seen a strong decline in employment linked to a
concentration movement in the industry.
These changes are generally accompanied by
a rise in qualification levels (source: pôle emploi
(French Job Centre) – survey on the employment
of tomorrow).

An exceptional
economic
opportunity
The project has been conceived with the aim of creating a
flexible, tailor-made facility, improving quality, promoting security
and highlighting safety. The operating costs have thus been
budgeted at an extremely economic level and the three following
points deserve to be highlighted:
1. The deflator effect on costs
2. The qualitative and protective effect
on people and property
3. The productivity effect on property
and services

4a The European logistics market
Warehouse rental costs for general merchandise
in France are quite low compared to the London
area where they are the highest.
The cost of renting warehouses authorised to
store dangerous goods are between 20 and 80%
lower, according to security provisions, than the
cost of renting a general goods warehouse.
Logistics is the management of the flow of
resources between the point of origin and the
point of consumption. In order to be effective, it
needs to be efficient and competitive.

Master, maintain and guarantee a high level
of security
The multimodal logistics platform has been
conceived to meet security expectations, by means
of risk management and sustainable development.
The technical volumes have been clearly adjusted
to suit those wishing to store dangerous goods
which require very specific installations. The
multimodal logistics platform and the covered
warehouse facility are both to be managed by the
same person, who will be offering adaptable rental
solutions to logistics service providers or industrial
haulage companies.
Technical protocol ensuring security of the facility
1. The covered warehouses as well as container
storage structures must comply with the
SEVESO II Directive (a European directive for the
prevention of major industrial risks), COMAH
(Control of Major Accident Hazards – a British
directive) and the 10th May 2000 French order
relative to the prevention of major accidents
involving hazardous substances or preparations
present in certain categories of permit holding
classified installations for environmental
protection. The project has been conceived to
conform to legal expectations. Regular security
performance related evaluations and analyses
have been carried out in order to deliver the
highest standard offer.
2. Improvement is a major aim and the strategy
has been clearly defined. Teams specialising
in QHSSE (Quality, Health, Security, Safety and
Environment) will fully train the managers,
undertaking the actions of communication and
awareness of the QHSSE.
3. A security, identification and dangerous situation
treatment programme has been developed and
evaluated together with special teams. The
future creation, operation and maintenance
of the installations and equipment have been
designed to minimise and anticipate risk and so
limit the consequences.
4. The aim is to avoid all incidents linked to the
transportation and storage of hazardous
materials (explosions, fires, water pollution and
inhalation of toxic gas). The procedures have
been studied at length to anticipate and react to
the eventual risk and the covered warehouses
and container storage, the tanks and vats as
well as the linear structures have been equipped
to the best safety and security standards
(detectors, sprinklers, retention tanks etc.).
The establishment and follow-up of the bans
affecting internal transport and mixed loading,
with the operational blocking factor, have been
put into place and include regular vehicle and
loading inspections. Identification systems,
container traceability and the integration
of databases and external programmes
concerning the management and operation
of dangerous goods are also expected, as is a
TI (Temporary Importation) inspection of the
restrictions imposed on the volume and bans
affecting mixed warehouse facilities.
5. High quality project management aiming to
protect the users, the general public and the
environment has been assigned to the project
in order to anticipate and manage the risks. All
of the procedures thus followed are subjected
to critical scrutiny and continued optimisation
thanks to the SQAS (Safety and Quality
Assessment System).

Appendix 6: Service criteria and service levels
Appendix 7: Societal and environmental commitments
The aim of these actions is to ensure that the place of work is comfortable and cosy, to improve the
quality of the services offered, to increase the swiftness of travel, to squeeze transport costs to
ensure the security and safety of the installations and to preserve the quality of the environment.
> The societal aspect
> The pride and wellbeing
of the workforce
> Basic services for operating
the facility
1. Establishment of quality service and employee
protection. Implementation of working
conditions respecting the health, pride and
security of the workforce.
2. Facilities benefiting from a maximum of natural
light, a quality thermal environment and enough
space to achieve the task at hand.
3. Access to QSE (Quality, Safety, Environment)
training and the development of skills necessary to manage risk.
4. Each step is followed by a review and continued
optimisation in accordance with the SQAS
(Safety and Quality Assessment System).
5. Facilities for external staff, reception area for
lorry drivers.
6. Quiet area.
1.Carrying out operations according to the
guidelines set out (validation and reception,
storage etc...).
2.Managing the specially adapted product
constraints and solutions and the flow of
dangerous goods.
3.IT-assisted inspections of the volume and
bans affecting mixed warehouse facilities and
allocating the specific cubicles.
4.Integrating the data bases and external
programmes concerning the management and
handling of dangerous goods.
5.Storing regulated products (administrative
and technical follow-up), interfacing with the
integrated management software packages
ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and
external IT tools.
6.Wrapping and packaging.
7.Container identification and traceability,
unloading and loading of dangerous goods
transported in tankers, emptying and refilling
dry containers.
8.Maintenance services, degassing tankers
(containers, wagons and lorry trailers).
9.Repair workshop for rolling vehicles.
1. A quality social and societal perspective.
2. Actions having an implication on society in the
long term, training in logistics professions
3. Networking with the major players in the
employment sector, such as the pôle emploi
(French Job Centre), the Conseil Général
(General Council) and the associations of the
Territorial collectivities.
4. Intervening in the management of the direct
and indirect socio-economic impact on local life.
5. The multimodal transportation of goods
without having to unload is crucial when the
merchandise is carried by different modes of
transport: sea/road, sea/rail and sea/waterway.
6. Multimodal transport is encouraged so as to
relieve traffic congestion on the roads and
lower the greenhouse gas emissions.
7. Logistics creates economic activity and thus
employment.
> Eco-construction
1. Implementation of HQE and BREEAM references
validating green construction.
2. A well-thought-out connection between the facility and its immediate environment.
3. Integrated choice of products and materials,
systems and construction methods.
4. Establishment of a low noise building site guaranteed by the EIFFAGE charter.
5. Management of pollution sources.
6. Health with the choice of low emission materials.
7. Heating and cooling system performance support.
8. Assurance that natural light will be used where
possible and comfortable artificial lighting.
9. Quality acoustic environment in different zones.
10. Management of the facilities with recyclable
materials until they need to be replaced.
> Green management
1. Energy management, reduction in energy
consumption and the pollution associated with
it.
2. Rainwater management and reduction in
consumption, water efficient equipment.
3. Quality base management on ISO 9001, ISO
14001 and CHSAS 18001 certifications.
4. Consumption measured in natural and energy
