Intermodal Transportation - a way to meet 3 future challenges!


1. Carbon neutral by 2050
60% less CO2 Emission in Intermodal vs. Truck transportation

2. Over 1 Mio. Missing Truck Drivers by 2026
Better work-life-balance for drivers and fewer drivers needed in Intermodal

3. High demands for Customer Experience
Good planning between Shipper, LSP & receiver and a better capacity utilization on the key corridors of our chemical industry improve customer experience


Let us work together to identify best practices on how to...

● Save CO2 emissions with Intermodal transportation
● Plan a resilient Intermodal Supply Chain door to door
● Increase your current Intermodal share
● Understand the impacts on your customers

In Workshops, we are going to collaborate on above mentioned. The 1st Workshop will take place in Q1 2024 in Brussels. Stay tuned!

Aim for

● Net Zero
● Resilient Supply Chains
● Delighted customers
