Smooth port logistics is essential for the efficient transport of goods on Europe’s waterways. Services such as transshipment, pre-carriage, on-carriage and customs clearance are just some of the port services that contribute to this.
From ship to road or rail, the ports along the coast and on Europe’s waterways are hubs for multimodal transshipment. The infrastructure and superstructure of our marine and inland port terminals ensure smooth supply chain management. Cranes and conveyor systems enable fast and careful handling of goods for port logistics. It doesn’t matter how your goods are transported – multimodal handling ensures a sensible combination of transport modes to provide you with the optimum solution.
Your goods are scanned during transshipment – both on arrival and departure. Any irregularities or damage are recorded using photo documentation, providing clear proof of damage. Thanks to EDI interfaces, data is exchanged electronically and fully automatically, keeping you informed at all times – with impeccable data quality and high efficiency. When loading for road transport, the truck is automatically weighed on calibrated and verified scales. This not only saves you time during handling, but the fast, error-free registration of license plates also supports automatic generation of the weighing slip.
Port logistics includes various services related to storage and goods handling. The Rhenus Group’s inland and seaport locations offer you the opportunity to store your goods in open and covered terminal areas for all bulk and general cargo. This is cost-effective and efficient, and enables immediate onward transportation by various modes of transport. To ensure the highest level of protection for your goods in open storage, our warehouses meet the requirements of the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code).
Indoor warehouses are particularly suitable for sensitive goods, high-value goods or dangerous goods as they provide protection from external influences. In addition to the storage of goods, the Rhenus Group offers other services in indoor warehouses. These comprise reusable services such as palletizing, packaging, order picking and sorting. Selected warehouses also offer temperature monitoring and humidity control, enabling temperature-controlled storage.
