Tecnitainer informs the market of the acquisition of Santos Tank Logística. The negotiations were concluded in early August. As a result, from now on both companies are part of the same group. Despite the acquisition, Santos Tank Logística will keep the same name and maintain its headquarters at Rua João Paulo Deales Bernardo, 113, in the Alemoa neighborhood, in Santos.
The acquisition of Santos Tank Logística further strengthens the Tecnitainer Group as the largest company in the isotank decontamination segment in the country.
“This move is part of our expansion strategy, with the aim of offering even more benefits and options to our clients, always preserving our hallmark of working toward the continuous improvement of the services we provide,” highlights the managing director of the Tecnitainer Group, Claudio Ezio Ioselli Junior.
Benefits for the sector
With easy access, Santos Tank Logística is located in a strategic area for the Port of Santos, as well as for the Anchieta–Imigrantes Highway System (SAI).
“This acquisition will certainly have a positive impact on the market, as it will bring many benefits to customer service, with quality and greater flexibility,” he emphasizes.
As with Tecnitainer, Santos Tank Logística has, in its warehouse, an area suitable for the cleaning and decontamination of chemical isotanks, as well as an exclusive food-grade bay, fully isolated.
The company also has an appropriate space for isotank refurbishment and maintenance, as well as adequate infrastructure for effluent treatment and a gas scrubber, enabling compliance with current legislation.
Despite the infrastructure it already has, Santos Tank Logística will now undergo a gradual improvement process, both structural and logistical. “We are already adopting here the same differentiated service and quality standard we use at Tecnitainer, which will ensure the standardization of services at both companies,” explains the operations manager, Michel Thomaz.
Tecnitainer terminals
In addition to the new Santos Tank Logística area, it is worth noting that Tecnitainer has two other terminals on Padre Manoel da Nóbrega Highway, Km 286, in São Vicente, also in a strategic, easily accessible region. The company continues in constant improvement throughout its more than 15-year history.
With one of the best structures in Latin America for the cleaning and decontamination of isotanks, Tecnitainer’s Terminal 1 has a 1,850 m² warehouse, with specific entrances for each of the activities carried out on site, which streamlines the entire logistics of internal operations.
Among its main differentiators is the total segregation of decontamination bays for chemical and food-grade isotanks. This eliminates any possibility of cross-contamination or what is known as a Critical Control Point.
The terminal also features a modern, differentiated structure with a laboratory and areas suitable for effluent treatment and a gas scrubber, complying with legislation and adopting good practices.
This, in fact, is part of our process of adopting and improving good practices related to ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance).
Terminal 2, in turn, has 14,000 m². Inaugurated in 2018, the fully paved area helped with tank storage, nearly tripling the company’s stock capacity.
“From the beginning, our proposal has been to create the best terminal for cleaning and decontamination of isotanks. We always strategically assess market needs and customer demand. That is why we maintain this constant improvement process, paying attention to every detail,” concludes the managing director of the Tecnitainer Group, Claudio Ezio Ioselli Junior.
