The facility will be run by family-owned company Soren Thyr, the port said.
“Up to now, the port has lacked a dedicated terminal for transloading sawn timber products,” it added.
The new forestry terminal is located next to the port's ro-ro and container terminals and linked to the rail system.
It can handle more than 1m cbm of timber each year.
Stena Line, DFDS Seaways, CLdN, MSC, SCI Freightman, ACL, Unifeeder and K-Line are all involved in shipping operations at the port.
