Rail transportation is a proven method of transporting goods of almost any kind over long distances. Many years of experience enable us to offer you the most suitable logistics solution for rail logistics.
For centuries, rail logistics has been an established means of transporting a variety of goods over long distances. Rail freight services stand out thanks to their punctuality, environmental friendliness and the large number of different services that rail transport offers. These include not only the pure execution of rail logistics, but also the assumption of transports on a company’s own account, rail forwarding and the maintenance of rail vehicles.
There are hardly any restrictions on the goods that can be transported by rail. For example, the Rhenus Group transports agricultural products, vehicles, building materials and raw materials as well as coal and mining products such as iron, steel, coal, coke and ores. For the transport of chemical and mineral oil products, Rhenus has the necessary certificates to prove the safe handling of hazardous goods. With more than 250 intermodal trains per week, the Rhenus Group ensures the smooth transportation of containers in Europe. The safety of your goods is ensured by containers and special containers, transport safety equipment and loading equipment as well as train/load monitoring, which is not only carried out technically but also by safety personnel. Thanks to IT solutions such as track & trace, you know where your goods are at all times.
More than 20 years of experience have taught us what international customers want, what challenges have to be overcome on trans-European routes – what role the weather plays and how important it is to be able to respond quickly at any time with the 24/7 helpdesk – as well as what individual details have to be taken into account at the customer’s end points or on the customer’s premises.
The Rhenus Group operates its own repair shops in Europe and offers rail vehicle maintenance as a service. Our experienced employees have a high level of technical expertise.
Rail freight is particularly cost-efficient due to its high transport volume. We consolidate individual orders into large volumes – so you benefit from our competitive purchasing prices.
Thanks to fixed timetables and reliable routes, rail freight forwarding is one of the most dependable modes of transportation over short and long distances. Optimized processes and reduced handling times also minimize downtime.
Compared to other transportation modes, rail freight services are significantly more environmentally friendly without sacrificing speed.
