Stolthaven Terminals’ facility in Santos, Brazil, has once again been recognised for its excellence in the storage industry. The terminal has received the DowGOL ‘Best Terminal in Brazil’ Award for the second consecutive year, making it one of only two storage terminals to be honoured with this award in 2023.
The award, presented by Dow Chemicals, acknowledges outstanding performance in various areas including safety and responsible care, operational excellence, customer experience, digital visibility and data security, environmental and social responsibility, and governance.

Stolthaven Santos was selected for the award due to its consistently high standards of personal safety and product integrity. The terminal’s commitment to operational efficiency and automation was also a contributing factor. For instance, their investment in automation has significantly reduced average truck loading/unloading times by over 25 minutes.
Marcelo Schmitt, the General Manager of Stolthaven Terminals Brazil, expressed his gratitude for the recognition and credited the hard work of the entire team in Santos. He also acknowledged the support received from colleagues in the Netherlands and sister companies, Stolt Tankers and Stolt Tank Containers, for their expertise and collaboration in delivering exceptional service to customers.
This is not the first time Stolthaven Santos has received this prestigious award. The terminal also won the DowGOL ‘Best Terminal in Brazil’ Award in 2022. Additionally, Stolthaven Terminals’ Moerdijk facility in the Netherlands recently received a silver Dow 4STAR award for its strong performance in safety, service, social responsibility, and sustainability.
