Over 14,000 Craneable Trailers Now in Use: Volatile Markets Reveal the Long-Term Advantages of Combined Transport.

A stronger supply chain Combined Transport Solutions

Day to day practices show what theory has suggested for many years: the more volatile the situation on the market, the better combined transport can demonstrate its strength. Particularly on Europe's long-haul routes, customers benefit from the reliability of intermodal connections, strengthening the entire supply chain. Driving bans and traffic jams at the borders (here freight trains are usually given preferential treatment and are much quicker to clear) are just one piece of the puzzle. The EU mobility package too does not make it any easier for classic road transport. These changes and demands require and encourage innovation and open the market up for alternatives. This is exactly where combined transport can position itself as the suitable solution. Drivers travel shorter distances and therefore can be at home more often, making the job more family-friendly. Both stability and a high performance level are available via rail in the long term and can be seen as future-proof. This prospect is also the reason for the ongoing site work on the railways. Many operators pursue the goal to strengthen and improve the transport by rail from year to year. Even if combined transport cannot guarantee absolute stability, in uncertain times like these it becomes more than an alternative, it becomes a necessity.
