A hub for the north
Rendsburg District Port is an industrial port specialising in the handling of bulk goods. Its location directly on the Kiel Canal enables short transport routes between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, offering advantages in terms of both time and distance.
Via the nearby A7 and A210 motorways, the port is also quickly connected to the national road network – an important foundation for reliable transport chains. At the same time, the port is being consistently developed towards low-emission operations through measures such as shore power supply.
Infrastructure for efficient bulk cargo handling
The focus is on the handling of bulk goods from the industrial and agricultural sectors. The port infrastructure is designed to ensure smooth operations between ship and shore and supports efficient handling processes with short distances and clear structures.
In addition, suitable storage and warehousing areas as well as technical facilities for low-emission loading are available. The berths are equipped with shore power connections, enabling ships to be supplied with electricity whilst at berth.

Supply during laytime
Ships are reliably supplied with water and power during their stay; waste disposal services are provided in accordance with applicable regulations.
Shore power
Connecting to shore power allows on-board systems to be operated without the generators running – and is mandatory if the vessel is equipped accordingly.
»For over 125 years, Rendsburg District Port has played a vital role in supplying the regional economy and is one of the leading transhipment hubs for bulk goods in Schleswig-Holstein. Its location on the Kiel Canal, the A7 motorway and the major north-south railway line is what makes it so attractive.«
