Nippon Express (Nederland) builds new warehouse in Schiphol Trade Park

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 21 -- Nippon Express (Nederland) BV (NE Nederland), a local subsidiary of Nippon Express Co Ltd based in Tokyo recently began construction of a new warehouse in Schiphol Trade Park.

Offering more than double the company's existing facility space, the new warehouse is being erected in Schiphol Trade Park, about seven kilometres southwest of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, one of Europe's key hub airports, to cope with steadily rising air cargo volume.

Good Distribution Practice certification, a standard for the proper distribution of pharmaceuticals, will be sought for the new warehouse to enhance NE Nederland's distribution network for the pharmaceutical sector.

​In anticipation of dealing with semiconductor-related equipment and other heavy or long-length cargo, a ULD handling system will be introduced to enable the facility to process 20-foot pallets. 

According to a statement, the roof will be outfitted with a 60 metre x 55 metre solar panel array to make the facility more eco-friendly.

Nippon Express will continue meeting the increasingly sophisticated and diverse needs of its customers as it steps up its efforts in the forwarding business and in the pharmaceutical and semiconductor industries.

The new warehouse is expected to start operations by July 2021, handling air and ocean cargo import/export CFS operations, removal operations as well as cross-dock operations.
