H.W.Carlsen is a Lion Bulk Handling brand specializing in dry bulk handling systems for self-discharging cement carriers and floating terminals. From small barges to larger vessels, H.W.Carlsen develops solutions for the safe, efficient and controlled handling of cement and other fine dry bulk materials.
As part of Lion Bulk Handling, H.W.Carlsen combines specialized maritime bulk handling expertise with the engineering, service and project capabilities of the wider Lion organization.
What does H.W.Carlsen specialize in?
H.W.Carlsen focuses on the movement, storage, loading and unloading of dry bulk materials in maritime environments.
The brand is particularly specialized in systems for:
- Self-discharging cement carriers
- Floating terminals
- Pneumatic bulk conveying
- Mechanical bulk conveying
- Ship loading and unloading
- On-board dry bulk storage and transfer
Systems can be configured around the vessel, material, required conveying capacity and operational requirements of each project.
Bulk handling for self-discharging cement carriers
Self-discharging cement carriers require an integrated system to move dry bulk material between the cargo holds and the receiving facility.
H.W.Carlsen develops both pneumatic and mechanical handling solutions for these vessels. Depending on the application, systems can incorporate technologies such as pressure tanks, vacuum conveying, screw conveyors, airslides and fluidized floors.
The objective is to create a reliable and continuous material flow while keeping cement and other fine powders enclosed throughout the handling process.
Bulk handling for floating terminals
H.W.Carlsen also develops dry bulk handling systems for floating terminals.
Floating terminals can provide storage and transfer capacity in locations where conventional land-based infrastructure is limited, unavailable or impractical. They can be used as either temporary or permanent facilities for handling materials such as cement and other dry bulk products.
By integrating storage, conveying, loading and unloading equipment on a floating platform, these systems create a flexible link between vessels and the wider bulk material supply chain.
