GROSSLEHNA

GROSSLEHNA

Shortly after Germany’s reunification, an office in Leuna, situated in a significant region of the chemical production industry, was opened to represent the SCHMIDT Group. Following rapid development and a large demand for storage capacity in this region, SCHMIDT established a logistics center at Grosslehna near Leipzig (Sachsen) in 1997. Right in the middle of the “Chemical Triangle” of Buna – Leuna – Bitterfeld a state-of-the-art plant with meanwhile 103 storage silos and storage/warehousing facilities covering 5200 m² was set up to store and process bulk goods.

The excellent infrastructure of this location enables for handling import and export business. In addition, special block-train concepts are made available.

HOT-PURGE-INSTALLATION

Simultaneously, a vehicle fleet for this specific location was set up, complemented by the site’s very own tank cleaning and service facilities as well as rail access. In 2006, our hot purge installation with a capacity of 25,000 tons p.a. started its operation. It thermically processes PE granulate and removes monomere remainders (carbon exhaust fumes) from the granulate. This “degassing” is a prerequisite of numerous manufacturers in the plastics industry to be able to produce a multitude of parts.
