They can carry out international and intercontinental transport without restrictions, including door-to-door goods transport services.
Multimodal transport allows for reducing transport costs and shortening delivery times. Due to the fact that it is carried out by one operator, it is also less complicated in formal terms. Thanks to experience in organizing multimodal transport in Symlog we are able to transport even the most demanding loads.
As part of the transport services we offer, we provide intermodal transport. They are carried out using at least two modes of transport and the same cargo unit (e.g. container or swap body) throughout the entire route, without reloading, which distinguishes them from multimodal transport. They include, for example,
Although combustion trucks make up less than 5% of the entire fleet on European roads, they are responsible for 22% of emissions from road transport in the EU. It is no wonder that there is an increasing talk of reducing their negative impact on the environment, including through sanctions.
As it turns out, the use of zero-emission technologies in international road transport alone will not be enough to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, to which the European Union has committed itself. More extensive action is needed.
One of these is the greater use of intermodal transport. It is estimated that it can reduce the carbon footprint and CO2 emissions caused by freight transport by as much as 60-90 percent compared to long-distance road transport.
How do we do it?
Both intermodal transport and multimodal transport are perfect for sending goods over long distances, both intercontinentally and within the European market.
