Gas Measurement and Degassing

Over the course of 12 years, Helly Hansen and Customs Support Group have built a strong partnership. But what are the keys to creating such a lasting relationship?

Customs Support Safety’s head of operations, Rob Gielen, joins Artur Stokbroekx and Sven Roemen from Helly Hansen to discuss how communication and IT integration are the keys to their success in Born, Netherlands.
 

About a year ago we added GOC Rotterdam to the Customs Support family. Until recently they operated under the GOC name, but now that they have successfully integrated they will continue as Customs Support Safety as of January 1st, 2022.

Safety is of the utmost importance in any work environment. That is why companies should be careful about exposure to harmful substances and gases: CMR chemicals. CMR stands for Carcinogenic, Mutagenic and Reprotoxic.

The most obvious confined space you might think about when thinking about measuring gas is the shipping container.

We are proud to announce that Van Tienen Group and PX Safety are now Customs Support Safety. GOC Rotterdam is also part of Customs Support Safety.

Customs Support, the independent and dynamic partner for customs and gas safety matters in Europe, announces the acquisitions of GOC Rotterdam. Custom Support’s ambition is to be the leading digital customs broker in Europe with strong ancillary services. This acquisition will strengthen our safety and gas analysis services in The Netherlands.

90 Percent of the world’s cargo is transported by shipping container. The number of containers keeps increasing. In 2019 the total throughput was 800 million TEU. TEU stands for Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit, the length of a standard shipping container. COVID caused a small dip in the increase for 2020, but the forecast for 2021 is 827 million and the total throughput is forecasted to rise to 924 million in 2024. 

The Customs Support Group does much more than being a customs partner for companies that wish to export goods or import goods and participate in global trade.
