Who We are

Tepsa is an independent leader in the storage of industrial liquid bulk products and gases including chemicals, fertilizers, biofuels, and fuels that are fundamental to the economy. Our geographical footprint covers Western Europe, from the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp region to Western Mediterranean region. We operate 15 terminals (with 27 sites majorly Seveso) that are strategically positioned near key transportation and infrastructure hubs across France, ARA region and Spain.

Thanks to our strategic geographical positions and constant expansion, we are a key link in the energy chain and a major chain for our customers, participating in the security supply. All our locations have the capacity to offer what customer companies expect from a storage terminal: we are committed to providing flexible, reliable and multimodal solutions for our customers, connecting industries to society, and employing high safety and quality standards across all our operations.

We collaborate with various strategic operators, suppliers and contractors in the value chain to help us provide a high-quality link in the logistics chains of chemical groups, biofuel companies, agricultural cooperatives, refiners, and fuel distributors and traders, by storing and taking care of their products. We also provide services such as blending, additivation and markering and ensure a bulk transport connection as close as possible to the product’s destination. Our logistics tools are responsive and efficient, allowing us to optimize both our own and our clients’ environmental footprint. Our comprehensive range of services ensure that we meet our customers’ needs and contribute to their value chain, overall economic growth and to provide sustainable storage solutions for everyday life.
