TDG has now opened a brand new chemical distribution and storage centre worth £3 million in Teesside, providing a full service for all their customers needs.  The distribution centre is located at the Wilton International Complex less than one mile from Teesport, providing approximately 60,000 square feet of high bay warehousing, including handling capacity for bulk liquids and powders. They will be looking to hire 100’s of HGV drivers to fill new vacancies.

The Wilton International Complex is also home to several global chemical manufacturers, including Artenius, Croda, Dow, Sabic and Invista, all of which are TDG customers and ideal for their HGV drivers.

According to TDG, their decision was influenced by their proposed £300 million investment in a Teesport deep sea container port.  The container port was recently granted approval from central government.

UK operations director at TDG, Colin Rutherford, said:

“Our North-East customers needed logistics solutions to let them take full advantage of the new port capacity and routes.

“So our investment in warehousing, distribution and a complete range of added-value services, from bagging and drumming to silo evacuation and breaking bulk, will mean we’re fully geared to meet our customers’ strategic needs.”
