Intermodal Transport

Intermodal and multimodal transport services by rail and ferry are available across Europe. Our subsidiary, Froelich International Transports in Hessisch Lichtenau (Germany), regularly operates trains between Kassel (Germany) and Verona (Italy). This offers the secure and efficient transport of cargo through the Alps, and connects Northern Europe to Southern Europe.

Transimeksa Intermodal in Hamburg connects Europe via ferry and organizes rail freight transportation from China.

Advantages of intermodal services:

Increased transport capacity

No road transport tolls or other driving-related restrictions

No road traffic delays

No weekend breaks or rest periods needed

Shorter lead times

78% less CO2 emissions

The further the freight distance, the more economical and ecological intermodal transportation becomes as an option. For example, intermodal transport from Kassel to Verona uses 78% less CO2 than carrying the same cargo by road. Our experts always explore the possibility of using intermodal transport where appropriate.
