Warehousing for wood products and paper reels

Wood products and paper reels often need storage before they are processed, sold, exported or distributed. Gosselin provides warehouse capacity for both short-term and longer-term storage, with handling solutions adapted to the cargo type, packaging, weight and required accessibility.

For plywood and other wood products, we use a dedicated tilting device designed to handle the cargo carefully, efficiently and damage-free.

Cargo can be received from containers, breakbulk shipments or trucks and stored until it is ready for onward transport. Where needed, our teams can support labelling, inventory visibility, order preparation, consolidation and distribution across Belgium and Europe.

Value added service

Fumigation and documentation support

Many wood products require specific export documentation, fumigation certificates, phytosanitary documents or customs formalities. Gosselin Logistics offers on-site & in-house fumigation support for eligible cargo flows and can coordinate the documentation needed to keep shipments compliant and ready for international transport.

By combining fumigation, cargo handling, customs support and transport planning within one logistics setup, customers avoid unnecessary handovers and reduce the risk of delays during export preparation.

Discover Fumigation

Multimodal transport from Antwerp to Europe and beyond

Our logistics network connects wood product flows with road, barge, rail, sea and air transport options. Import cargo can move from the Port of Antwerp-Bruges to inland terminals, warehouses or final destinations, while export cargo can be prepared, stuffed, documented and shipped to international markets.

This multimodal approach helps reduce dependency on a single transport mode and creates more flexibility for high-volume wood product flows, recurring shipments and project-based cargo movements.
