Project High capacity equipment @kaai 125-127 | Year 2020
After the major transformation of this terminal we had to invest in high capacity state of the art equipment to have a extremely efficient terminal.
The decision was taken to invest in large cranes which are in line with the high capacity demands. We therefor invested in a Mantsinen 300M and a Liebherr LHM 800. Both delivered Q1/2021.
This way we boost productivity and quality to record-breaking heights.

Project Joint Venture VEEMNATIE
Year 2018
For a new project of one of our clients we needed more space than available @ vijfde havendok. To help our client with the realisation of his project we decided to establish a joint venture with Steinweg Belgium and start up this project @ Albertdok Antwerp.
Project Marketing
Year 2017
The innovations being underway, it was decided to also tackle our marketing.
A new 5HD logo was designed and a new website is designed, a website that is showing who 5HD is and what 5HD does.
5HD, your logistics in High Definition
Project renovation vertical silos @ Samga
Year 2016
Giving new life to Antwerp’s oldest grain terminal also involved strengthening the vertical silos, allowing them to run at full capacity again.
The whole building was painted in white and new lighting was installed, thus turning the Antwerp’s oldest grain terminal into a new eye catching landmark.
Project Solar Panels
Year 2015
We care about the environment and uphold an active policy on minimising the impact of our activities and engaging proactively in the development of new environmentally sustainable practices and technologies.
Therefore the decision was taken to install solar panels on the roofs of the warehouses @ kaai 371, generating 1000 MWH of green energy.
Project high capacity crane @371
Year 2013
While building the new bulksilos @ 371 the following project was to buy a high capacity crane to handle the dry bulk cargo.
The Liebherr LHM500 can efficiently handle bulk transhipments with its 30 ton lifting capacity at 50 meters. To provide more services a container spreader and big bag spreader were purchased.
Project building silos @371
Year 2013
KAAI 371 has the big advantage of having waterside access but no operational handlings were possible at that time. 5HD decided to change this by designing and building a new bulk storage facility.
The construction of our new bulk storage facility was designed based on the long in-house experience in handling bulk goods. We chose to design the silo’s in such a way that dry bulk cargo can directly be discharged through the roof of the storage facility.
