BREAKBULK EUROPE
Antwerp/Belgium, May 2016
In line with over 350 international exhibi-
tors, SAL was again part of the Breakbulk
Europe exhibition in Antwerp on 24–25
May. Our team not only catered for our
visitors with freshly squeezed juices
but also welcomed lots of old and new
friends at our booth. Being the largest
exhibition and educational breakbulk
and project cargo forum in the world, the
Breakbulk offered many opportunities for
constructive conversations, promising
encounters and networking.
This year also two SAL colleagues had
the chance to enrich the overall program
with a speaker session on safety culture:
SAL’s Head of HSSE, George Geddes,
and our General Manager Training, Daniel
Duniec
,
gave some insight into
“Why pro-
moting a positive safety culture makes a
difference”

Turku/Finland, May 2016
Finland is internationally known as a
concentration of the maritime cluster.
The NaviGate exhibition re-energises this
sector, charts new opportunities and pre-
sents an interdisciplinary and innovative
view to the maritime industry and logis-
tics. This is why our colleagues from SAL
Finland took the chance to be part of this
maritime expo on 18–19 May in Turku.
Besides getting in touch with lots of
other professionals in the maritime logis-
tics and shipping industry, the exhibition
offered a great opportunity to present a
stunning model of MV Svenja transport-
ing modules for the Burj Al Arab Terrace
in Dubai and to invite the visitors for the
first screenings of the corresponding
project movie.

BREAKBULK CHINA
Shanghai/China, March 2016
From 16–17 March, SAL again partici-
pated at Breakbulk China – the largest
conference and exhibition in Asia. Be-
sides addressing the needs of traditional
breakbulk and project cargo logisticians,
the expo offered unparalleled opportuni-
ties to connect with lots of known and
unknown faces.
Our SAL Shanghai colleagues Tina
Yi (Chartering Manager) and Steven Ou
(General Manager) also held a presenta-
tion about SAL’s latest achievements dur-
ing the involvement at the Formosa Plastic
Factory expansion project. Within three
shipments, 60,947 freight tonnes were
shipped to Point Comfort in Texas, USA.
The second shipment also received atten-
tion from a television production company
working on a new Discovery Channel
series. A film crew attended the SAL
vessel in Texas to follow the unloading
operations which involved lifting the huge
cargoes from MV Lone onto self-propelled
modular transporters (SPMT).
