More flexibility and safety with our Transportation Modes
With the help of our cooperating partners and infrastructure, we ensure global reach for international freight transportation and develop customized solutions tailored to your requirements. We know the routes, regulations and best practices, and provide expertise and years of experience to help you transport your cargo.
Sea freight – Flexible and reliable planning around the world
Sea freight is an extremely attractive option for the international movement of goods. Transport by sea is not only more cost-effective than other modes of transport, but also allows more flexibility in the movement of goods. In this context, you can benefit from our global network: with the help of our partners, we guarantee a high density of departures in all trade lanes – therefore your goods can get on board quickly, even at short notice.
Further, we possess an intelligent carrier portfolio of full and consolidated containers. This allows us to accommodate your freight in the best possible way and accelerate transit times. Our lead-time-driven management ensures that shipments are guaranteed to arrive on site as planned.
Air freight – The fast and safe way to your destination
Do you want your goods to reach their destination as quickly as possible? As an officially certified IATA agent, we work with the best carriers in the world and guarantee you the highest quality standards even above the clouds. We maintain reliable capacities for you and offer numerous consols with door-to-door service and integrated pre- and on-carriage services.
When things need to move particularly fast, our express service ensures that your freight is booked on the fastest possible transit time and given priority handling – around the clock. Alternatively, our regular flight connections offer short-term transport solutions. Your added value: high plannability and cost advantages in handling your freight.
China Rail – Cheap, fast and sustainable
More cost-effective than air transport, faster than the sea route: Freight transport by rail is an attractive solution for routes between China and Europe. To date, no other mode of transport produces fewer CO2 emissions – international rail transport scores with maximum sustainability in the Transporation Modes segment.
With excellent connections to all relevant production areas and several departures per week, we ensure the fast shipment of full containers and partial loads via China Rail, support you with individual pre- and post-carriage and monitor goods movements via transparent shipment tracking.
Combined transport – Water and air
The combination of air and sea freight is an attractive alternative for the international transport of goods over long distances. Regular departures with fixed transport times ensure that we reliably deliver your goods to their destination. At the same time, you demonstrably reduce CO2– emissions using this integrated transport.
The optimal balance between sea freight and air freight depends on many different factors and requires careful planning and coordination. Our experts are at your side to combine the attractive sea freight prices with the speed of air freight in the best possible way and to ensure the smooth flow of your goods transport at all times.
