Over Projects and Platetrade coordinated the plant expansion for the Heineken brewery in Ponta Grossa, Brazil.

Both companies are members to the Worldwide Project Consortium (WWPC) for Brazil and Argentina respectively.

The project required a total of 18 shipments in a 5-month period, via the Port of Paranagua, Brazil, where the WWPC members jointly took care of receiving the breakbulk pieces, stripping of OOG containers and DAP deliveries to jobsite, including over dimensional loads with police escorts.

Figures:
11.259,71 CBM of cargo
531 pieces

Widest load: 6,3 meters

9 voyages with Police Escorts

Breakbulk vessels + 49 x OOG Flat Racks + 94 standard containers

After the addition of the 44 new tanks, this plant becomes the largest of Heineken’s conglomerate in Brazil.
