Why Zeeland Refinery chose Zeeland
The oil refinery produces 11.5 million tonnes of high-quality fuels and raw materials for the (petro)chemical industry each year. The products are mainly produced for the Dutch, Belgian, and German markets. 95% of the end products are transported by ship, the rest by trucks and a pipeline.
Nathalie de Muynck, director of Zeeland Refinery: “Zeeland Refinery has been active in Zeeland for 45 years. The location on the Westerschelde estuary and the good connections with the hinterland were very important in the location choice and are still crucial.”
“The employees in this area are very loyal. For them too, Zeeland is ideal with its peaceful living environment and more than enough recreational opportunities.”
