Check on operating carrier step by step live at Hutchison Ports Delta II

Automatic control at the terminal gate on the operating carrier. This new way of working always ensures that the right driver is given access to the terminal. Hutchison Ports Delta II on the Maasvlakte, as the third container terminal in Rotterdam, has started rolling out this final link in the Secure Chain.

The check is done by comparing the EAN number on the visiting driver’s CargoCard with the EAN number in the carrier’s Portbase pre-notification. Only if both numbers match will the gate open.

Hutchison Ports Delta II will soon make participation mandatory, but carriers can already participate on a voluntary basis now. Signing up can be done here.

At the ECT Delta terminal and the ECT Euromax terminal, the obligation already exists. The other Rotterdam deep-sea terminals are also preparing to introduce operating carrier checks.
