Vale CLN Terminal and Stockyard

Located in São Luís, Brazil, the Vale CLN terminal and stockyard project supports iron ore handling through connected storage and port facilities. KDHI supplied belt conveyor equipment across the project’s first, second and third phases.

The conveyor package comprises 10 belt conveyors with a combined length of 7 km and a belt width of 2,200 mm. The maximum conveying capacity is 23,500 tonnes per hour.

The project demonstrates KDHI’s experience in supplying high-capacity conveyor equipment for phased terminal and stockyard developments, where material flow and equipment interfaces must be coordinated across the handling system.

The terminal and stockyard are located in northeastern Brazil, connecting Atlantic shipping routes with inland logistics. The development has a total investment exceeding USD 700 million and uses natural deep-water access for large vessels.
