Services

Distrilog offers its services both within its own infrastructure, and on the client’s premises. We have the buildings, the permits, and, above all, the experience to store hazardous substances. This service has been developed especially for companies that trade in hazardous (chemical) substances and do not have this specific and adapted storage capacity themselves. Our key objective is to make the customer’s life easier, and to do so in a way that is cost efficient, safe and flexible. Together we search to optimise added value, whether in a standard solution or and in customisation. The fact we can provide a complete service package – transport, distribution, incoming and outgoing goods registration, stockage, co-packing – is also much appreciated by our customers.
