Transporeon and \u00d6BB Rail Cargo Group (RCG) have formed a strategic collaboration to address sustainability challenges in European freight transport. Their integrated platform aims to facilitate the modal shift from road to rail, supporting Europe’s climate objectives.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>The collaboration introduces a multimodal logistics approach, utilising rail for the primary transport leg and road for the first and last-mile. This resulted in the first seamless integration of multimodal transport on a single platform \u2013 an innovation that is unique in Europe.<\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/h2>\n

Transporeon customers can now book door-to-door transports as \u2018all in one\u2019 shop, including container equipment, on the Transporeon platform. Rail services can be used for the main leg of the service, while first and last mile links are done via road. \u201cThis is the innovation – an integration of rail on the Transporeon platform\u201d, a spokesperson for RCG pointed out. This combines the efficiency of rail with the flexibility of road transport, offering a practical alternative to road-only freight movement.<\/p>\n

The logistics industry has expressed a need for integrated solutions that offer digital integration and real-time tracking. The collaboration between RCG and Transporeon addresses these requirements by providing a platform where customers can manage both road and rail transport seamlessly.<\/p>\n

Addressing Climate Concerns<\/h2>\n

The European Green Deal highlights the necessity of reducing transport-related emissions, which currently account for 12 per cent of total CO2 emissions. Rail transport, being significantly more climate-friendly than road, is key to achieving these reductions. The solution developed by RCG and Transporeon has received notable awards, including the Austrian Logistics Award and the international Supply Chain Excellence Award, acknowledging its potential to impact the industry positively.<\/p>\n

Potential Market Growth<\/h2>\n

With favorable conditions, the European multimodal transport market could double. This collaboration establishes a foundation for growth and innovation, contributing to Europe’s climate goals. Companies such as Nestl\u00e9 and V\u00f6slauer are already utilizing this integrated approach. The collaboration between Transporeon and RCG demonstrates how digital integration can enhance sustainability and efficiency in freight transport, supporting a more environmentally conscious future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
