Port of Immingham is in a prime east coast
position and is the gateway to the region.

mouth of the Humber Estuary. It covers 39
acres and is one of the furthest inland ports in
the British Isles.
Next to the main M62 Trans Pennine motorway,
the port has unrivalled access to the key industrial
markets of the North, the West and the Midlands.
Just 200 miles from London and Edinburgh, Howden
has excellent air and sea links and 40m consumers
are within a four-hour drive.
KEADBYThe Port of Keadby lies on the west bank
of the River Trent, just off the A18, west of
Scunthorpe.
The port’s main focus is a specialist steel handling
and storage facility that both supports the industry
and functions as a UK stocking point for imported
steel products.
SCUNTHORPEPD Ports’ Scunthorpe estate is 1 mile east
of the River Trent and just 8 miles from the
Humber Estuary.
The site has excellent transport links via the M180
close to Humberside Airport. Connections to the west

and the M62.
ISLE OF WIGHTMedina Wharf is the Isle of Wight’s main
commercial wharf, providing access to the

acres, with covered warehousing and substantial
open storage areas as well as designated grain
storage and handling facilities within the port.

PD PORTSIN THE COMMUNITY
ENVIRONMENT
AT PD PORTS WE CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND MAINTAIN SUSTAINABLE CODES OF PRACTICE TO MINIMISE ANY ADVERSE IMPACT ON OUR SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENTS.To achieve this, we’ve put in place a team of Environmental Champions at each of our operating locations. These teams ensure we continue to adhere to environmental legislation and strive to keep improving our environmental performance.
PD Ports introduced its own environmental management system
in 2012. Since then the business has achieved International
Environmental Management Standard ISO 14001, one of the
first UK ports businesses to achieve this exacting qualification.
WE TAKE OUR ROLE IN THE COMMUNITY VERY SERIOUSLY AND WE RECOGNISE THE POSITIVE IMPACT WE CAN HAVE ON OUR LOCAL REGIONS AND PEOPLE.
PD PORTS IS ONE OF THE DRIVING FORCES BEHIND THE HIGH TIDE FOUNDATION.
This new charity was set up by port-related businesses along the River Tees to raise the aspirations of young people on Teesside by offering better training and employment opportunities.
Working with the High Tide
Foundation, the wider industrial
community and local education
and training providers, PD Ports
runs effective programmes
giving people practical skills and
experience in port-related sectors.
The first result of these
programmes was the creation, in
2013, of 13 full-time permanent
positions for apprentices in
operational roles at Teesport.
This represents a 100% success
rate following the introduction
of the bespoke 18-month
apprenticeship scheme in 2011.
PD Ports is an active member of
Business in the Community. Since
joining in 2011, we have become
firmly established in a network of
multinational household names,
small local businesses and public
sector organisations that all stand
for responsible business.
In 2012 our CEO, David
Robinson, was appointed
Regional Ambassador to
HRH The Prince of Wales for his
leadership in bringing businesses
together to help improve the skills
and aspirations of young people
on Teesside.
In 2013 PD Ports employee,
Eddie Miller, was appointed BiTC
Business Connector for the North
East to help vital community
services tackle local issues. The
12 month role focusses on taking
business resource, skills and time
into the heart of communities
where vital services are under
pressure to do more with less.
