ADDITIONAL SERVICES

Heating Service

At SL Container Terminal, we provide steam heating services for cargo that may solidify during transportation and needs to be converted back into liquid form before delivery or further processing. This service is especially important for cargo that cannot be discharged, transferred, or processed efficiently once it hardens during transit.

Our heating service helps customers restore cargo flowability in a safe, practical, and controlled manner. By bringing the cargo back to a workable liquid state, we help support smoother unloading, easier transfer, and more efficient downstream handling at receiving facilities. This is particularly useful for cargo destined for processing plants, including glucose-related applications and other industries that require liquid-form material for production use.

The heating process is backed by a steam boiler system, allowing heat to be applied steadily and reliably to support cargo readiness before the next stage of movement or processing. This service adds value for customers who need operational continuity, reduced handling difficulty, and better preparation for plant delivery.
