Stevedoring firm, since 1975

Driven in fast and flexible transhipment

Why A. Brussé en Zn.

A fleet that comes to the ship, and a family business that has been on top of it for fifty years.

Family business since 1975

A reliable partner for the transhipment of bulk goods and mixed cargo since 1975. Short lines: you speak to the people who actually do the work.

The crane comes to the ship

Our floating cranes are moved by our own push tugs. That makes us flexible 24 hours a day and quickly deployable, at favourable rates.

A family business on the water

A passion for the stevedoring trade: short lines, familiar faces and a fleet we sail and operate ourselves.

Over the years we have greatly expanded our stevedoring activities. Our firm now has seven floating cranes and three push tugs. These floating forces make us flexible 24 hours a day; combined with the short lines in our family business, we guarantee our clients a fast service.

Partnership

Nieuwe Waterweg Silo

A. Brussé en Zn. and the storage and transhipment company Nieuwe Waterweg Silo in Schiedam have the same owner and work closely together. Where Brussé is mobile with floating cranes, Nieuwe Waterweg Silo has fixed shore cranes and silo storage at its own quay. Together that covers transhipment mid-water as well as at the quay.

The work in pictures

From grab to crane jib and from coaster to push tug: this is what transhipment on the water looks like.
