  • Partnering with an international distributor can greatly reduce the cost and time of supplier management, allowing customer procurement to focus on strategic materials
  • International distribution can bundle customers' global usage to simplify the interaction with producers
  • Knowledge gain at one customer site can be rapidly transferred to all other sites, thus lessening project development time, approval of alternate sources, or implementing best-in-class logistics
  • One contract or working document applies to all business interactions leading to quicker implementation, reduced misunderstandings and elimination of regional differences
  • An international distributor can grow with the customer as the customer enters new geographical and business markets

Customers who take advantage of Brenntag's truly global network contributed EUR 1,120m of sales in 2013

TOP INITIATIVE – ADBLUE/DEF1)

High volume growth of high quality urea solution needed for catalytic reaction in trucks to fulfill regulatory requirements in Europe and NA

Concept

  • In Europe and North America new trucks have to meet specific norms for reduced emissions.
  • High quality urea solution is needed for catalyst reaction to fulfill those norms.
  • Brenntag has developed special logistics and consultancy concepts to facilitate supply of our customers with AdBlue/ DEF. This concept focuses on guaranteeing a consistently high quality standard throughout the supply chain from production and all logistics services to the arrival of the product at the customer's premises.
  • For 30 liters of truck diesel 1 liter of AdBlue is required.

  • Reduction of NOx

  • Reduction of particles

1) Diesel Exhaust Fuel

Efficient management of stock and storage utilizationNORTH AMERICA – EFFICIENT HUB & SPOKE SYSTEM

  • Larger distribution sites ("hubs") are fully equipped with tanks, filling stations, mixing and blending facilities and storage facilities for packaged products
  • Smaller distribution sites ("spokes") represent warehouse facilities for packaged products that are supplied from the larger sites

1) BEA Bureau of Economic Analysis

  • Product responsibility
  • Plant safety
  • Occupational safety and health
