A reliable solution for high-density polyethylene logistics. At the INEOS production site in Rosignano Solvay, one of Europe’s leading hubs for High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) manufacturing, efficient loading operations are essential to ensuring production continuity and supply chain reliability.
To handle HDPE pellets destined for both the domestic Italian market and international export, INEOS selected TOREX® telescopic loading spouts, installed on loading stations serving road tankers and shipping containers for overseas transportation.
From engineering study to installation
The solution was developed through close collaboration between TOREX® specialists and the INEOS technical team in Rosignano. The engineering phase focused on correctly sizing the loading bellow: extended and retracted length, required capacity and different loading applications within the facility.
The solution was the ZG model with parts in contact in stainless steel 304, double chute with inner cones, rotating level indicator and anti-waste device. The INEOS engineering department also directly managed the installation and assembly activities, ensuring seamless integration of the equipment into the existing production process.
A choice confirmed over time
In 2021, INEOS installed seven TOREX® loading bellows for HDPE pellet loading operations. The equipment’s reliability in daily operation, combined with the performance achieved over several years of service, led INEOS to confirm the same technology again in 2025, with the supply of an additional seven loading bellows.
Choosing TOREX® for a second consecutive project is a strong endorsement of the value delivered in terms of operational efficiency, process reliability, and long-term performance.
