HOYER Expands Service Portfolio at Shanghai Site

he HOYER Group, one of the world’s leading providers of logistics solutions for liquid goods, has successfully implemented a major infrastructure project in Shanghai together with its long-standing customer Covestro. In a newly constructed, state-of-the-art facility within the Covestro Integrated Site Shanghai, HOYER will now be responsible for filling and storing MDI in drums and IBC totes, as well as the logistical management of the entire process. The facility was officially opened in November.

The new facility was planned and constructed by Covestro. It includes, among other features:

Four fully automated drum filling systems with integrated system,
three temperature-controlled warehouses with ammonia refrigeration,
a central control room to monitor all technical processes,
an office building with expanded administrative functions.
At the heart of the new facility is a modern control room, which serves as the control and monitoring center for all logistical and technical operations. It is staffed around the clock, ensuring 24/7 operational readiness. Joseph Gao, Startup Manager of the MDI Logistics Project says, “With the new facility at our Shanghai Integrated Site, we are showcasing advanced automated systems and digital innovation with locally-adapted technologies that ensure reliable MDI production.”
“Our local team contributed to the successful commissioning with great commitment and expertise,” adds Leo Zhang, Senior Manager Operations in the HOYER Group.
