Port logistics designed for seamless cargo flows

Smooth port logistics are essential for the efficient transport of goods via inland waterways. Services such as transshipment, pre-carriage, on-carriage and customs clearance are among the port services that contribute to this.

Efficient cargo handling for seamless onward transport

Whether cargo arrives by vessel or moves onward by road or rail: Our seaport and inland terminal facilities in Türkiye and Europe are equipped with robust infrastructure and modern superstructure to support efficient, uninterrupted supply chain operations. Advanced crane technology and conveyor systems allow us to handle your goods quickly and with care, ensuring high standards in port logistics. Regardless of the transport mode used, multimodal handling enables the optimal combination of routes and carriers to deliver the most effective solution for your shipment.

During transshipment, all goods are scanned at both inbound and outbound stages. Any deviations or damage are documented with photographic evidence to ensure full transparency. Electronic data interchange (EDI) enables fully automated data transfer, keeping you continuously informed with accurate, high-quality information. For onward road transport in Türkiye, trucks are automatically weighed on certified, calibrated scales. Automated license plate recognition speeds up the process and ensures fast, error-free generation of weighing documentation – saving time and increasing operational efficiency.

Flexible storage solutions: secure and cost-effective

Port logistics covers a wide range of services related to storage and cargo handling. At the Rhenus Group’s inland and seaport terminals, you can storebulkand general cargo in both open-air and covered terminal areas. This approach is efficient and cost-effective, while allowing for immediate onward transport using multiple modes of transportation. To safeguard goods stored outdoors, our facilities comply with the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, ensuring a high level of protection.

Enclosed warehouses are ideal for sensitive, high-value or hazardous goods, as they shield cargo from external influences. Beyond storage, Rhenus Group provides a variety of value-added services within these facilities, including palletizing, packaging, order picking and sorting. Selected locations are also equipped with temperature monitoring and humidity control, enabling reliable temperature-controlled storage solutions.
