Welcome to the Project Logistics Alliance!

Aprojects, member of the Project Logistics Alliance for Austria, has successfully completed the safe shipment of a batch of railway equipment from Europe to China.

The main equipment had a dimension of 2498x351x428cm and weighed 118MT, with some spare parts packed in cases. Aprojects scope of work included loading from the shippers' site in Austria, loading and transporting via truck to Antwerpen Port, thereon loading onto the ocean vessel, LSD, and the offloading at Tianjin Xingang Terminal with a direct rail connection.

The main challenge was to partially assemble the machinery already at Antwerp, prior to the ocean shipment, so they could be unloaded directly at the rail terminal. Due to the height restrictions, the boogies were not mounted at that point.

Aprojects is happy to report that in collaboration with their client, the project was carried out on the track. Please feel free to reach out to them per the following channels for more details: Tel.: +43 (0) 7221 20515-11 Fax: +43 (0) 7221 20515-90 Email: This email address is being protected from spambots.

Tschudi Logistics, member of the Project Logistics Alliance for Finland recently cooperated on an interesting job from Central Finland to Northern Russia.
Cargo was a boiler plant with pieces as high as over 6 meters, which made a simple road transport impossible. Instead, the Tschudi Logistics team came up with a great solution that included transporting the cargo via inland waterways.

“They collected cargo directly from the client’s factory in Kiuruvesi, Finland, and transported it to Kuopio lake port. The cargo was then reloaded with mobile cranes to a chartered vessel which then sailed over lake Saimaa, onwards to Russian rivers, and up to the White Sea to final delivery in Onega port.” Jussi Heinonen, Head of Projects and Forwarding Finland

Every project is tailor-made specific to each client's requirements. Find information about their other projects here: https://lnkd.in/dGQP_yS

Congratulations Tschudi Logistics!

Tschudi Logistics, who has recently joined as a member of the Project Logistics Alliance for Finland, is proud to share with us one of their recent projects for the paper industry. 6 pieces of large digesters for the paper factory, each with a dimension of 21.00 x 6.30 x 6.30 m and weight of 72 MT, were in need of transportation from Finland into Belgium.

Tschudi performed a door to door turnkey delivery in one shipment: from loading the cargo on site, transporting the units inland towards Hamina Port, reloading onto the vessel towards Rotterdam, and then completing the final inland leg through Belgium to the delivery site. The main challenges were the tight bends and roundabouts on the route. A total of 40 vehicles drove simultaneously in one convoy through Belgium, with over ten different companies working in cooperation to ensure that it went smoothly. This is a true example of how important good coordination and reliable partners are in project logistics.

We invite you to enjoy this short video clip of the journey: Congratulations Tschudi Logistics on the brilliant execution!
