Ship Segments
NORDEN owns and operates vessels in the Capesize, Panamax, Post-Panamax, Handymax and Handysize segments. The large dry cargo vessels, Capesize, mainly transport iron ore and coal, while the Panamax vessels also carry grain. The Handymax and Handysize vessels additionally transport steel, cement, sugar, fertiliser and other types of cargo. These vessels are typically equipped with cranes, which enables them to operate more independently of port facilities.
