Safety is an overriding priority for IOR Terminals and it is committed to conducting its business in a manner that protects the safety of employees, others involved in its operations, the public, and the environment.

Port Bonython Terminal provides regional South Australian users a benefit through its closer proximity and thereby reduced kilometres travelled to source product. This also helps the environment with the equivalent reduction of carbon emissions. A reduction in kilometres travelled also has a marked impact in terms of operations risk mitigation and IOR Terminals is proud to contribute to the reduction of risk on our South Australian roads.
