MULTIMODAL SERVICES

As part of the transport services we offer, we provide: intermodal transport. They are implemented using at least two modes of transport and this one the loading unit itself (e.g. container or swap body) along the entire route, without reloading, which distinguishes it from multimodal transport. These include, for example: 

• road and sea transport,
• rail and sea transport,
• road, rail and sea transport,
• road, rail and air transport.

Why is it worth choosing intermodal transport? Symlog?

Reducing transport costs

Connection various branches of transport allows you to optimize transport costs. As a result, intermodal deliveries - although they usually take longer - are cheaper than carriage of goods using one branch of transport.

Carbon footprint reduction

Application different types transport allows you to reduce CO emissions2 and other greenhouse gases, and as a result, reduce the carbon footprint associated with movement of goods from point A to point B.

Minimum formalities

In intermodal transport, transport is carried out on the basis of one contract, and one person is responsible for the delivery intermodal transport operator. This allows for simplification of related procedures with the organization of transport and reduces formalities to a minimum.

Security

We do our best to load unit i transported goods have arrived at destination without compromising quality. We use numerous security measures that limit risk of damage to a minimum.

Even though it's combustion lorries they constitute less than 5 percent. the entire fleet that travels on European roads, they account for 22 percent. emissions come from road transport in the EU. It is therefore not surprising that there is more and more talk about the need to reduce their negative impact on the environment, including: through sanctions.

As it turns out, the very use of zero-emission technologies in... international transport road traffic will not be enough to ensure that by 2050 achieve climate neutralityto which the European Union has committed itself. More extensive action is needed.

One of them is greater use intermodal transport. It is estimated that it is able to reduce the carbon footprint and CO emissions2 caused by the transport of goods by up to 60-90 percent. compared to long-distance road transport.

Therefore v Symlog we focus on pro-ecological intermodal transport and reducing the carbon footprint. How do we do it?

1. We are constantly introducing new international intermodal connections, including e.g. road and sea transport
2. We optimize supply chains for CO2. We carry out numerous warehouse operations in which we are able to efficiently collect goods, consolidate them and send them to the destination country or, if necessary, deconsolidate loads and distribute them by parcel.
3. We use the latest technologies, which facilitate the monitoring of CO emissions2 during our transports

Do you want to be more eco? Do you care about deliveries that are safer for the environment? Choose intermodal and multimodal transport start reducing your carbon footprint from In a second.

Both intermodal transport and  Multimodal transport they are perfect for sending goods over long distances, both intercontinental and within the European market.

A perfect example multimodal services is the transport of goods from European countries: for example from Spain or Ireland to the CIS countries. In such cases Symlog organizes the entire range of services international shipping:

• railway transport,
• car transport,
• maritime transport,
• container transport.
