Multimodal solutions – optimised combinations of modes of transport

Engineering door-to-door solutions by combining rail, road and short sea in accordance with your specific requirements is our core expertise.

We serve you with a different range of multimodal solutions. Rail transportation is highly energy-efficient, cost-effective and particularly suitable for transporting large quantities of goods medium- to long-distance. Trucks support close-range distribution. Transport your cargo with an outstanding ecological footprint and reach every corner of Europe. And even beyond, when using the Transeurasian rail corridor.
