Crude tall oil is the cargo that defines Sandarne, an industrial port on Sweden's Gulf of Bothnia coast run by Söderhamns Stuveri & Hamn AB. The quays serve Kraton Chemical (formerly Arizona Chemical), which receives crude tall oil by tank ship, tank truck and rail and refines it into pitch oil — a bio-based substitute for heavy fuel oil — and tall rosin for binders and adhesives. This is a works port for liquid and industrial cargo rather than a container terminal, with alongside depth of about 6.4 m. Its character reflects an old sawmill-and-factory settlement that evolved into a tall-oil chemicals hub. Forwarders handling containers or general cargo should route via nearby Gävle, with Stugsund/Söderhamn covering regional traffic.
