As a world port, we provide prosperity and jobs. But Port of Antwerp-Bruges wants to do and mean more than that. Because we are aware of the impact of our activities on our surrounding and local residents.
The port and its surroundings form an ecosystem and together we want to create opportunities for a sustainable future. That is why we invest in safety, mobility and environmental quality.
Air quality and odour play an important role in the environmental quality for local residents and surrounding cities. We strive to continuously improve the air quality in the broad vicinity of Antwerp and Zeebrugge and to limit odour nuisance.
The port must remain accessible for people and goods. That is why we are working towards a modal shift in order to increase cargo transport by rail, inland navigation and pipelines by 2030.
We want to make sure the port area stays clean. Along with the companies at the port, we take measures to reduce and remove water and soil pollution.
The port area boasts a lot of unique nature. Industry should not come at the expense of nature. We strive for a balance between economic growth, consideration for nature, and we are committed to preserving and developing nature.
Safety is a top priority for us. We make every effort in this regard and work together with the emergency services, the police forces and the competent authorities to ensure a safe port.
In a rapidly changing world, we want to be a safe haven and turn major challenges such as the energy transition, digitisation and mobility into solutions.
