You have to transport cargo within
Europe?
You know motor-roads and railway-lines and something about inland
waterways, but need help to make a decision between these possibilities?
Our pages in the internet will help to increase your knowledge about inland waterways:
As you can see from the map, the European network of inland
waterways is branching out in all directions - connecting seaports with
the hinterland.
As
the individual waterways differ in dimension, the use of inland vessels
of different sizes is necessary - we provide comprehensive files of all
sizes.
Our inland vessels, equipped with modern technology, are suitable for transporting bulk goods as well as for special transports: you easily carry bulky constructions, that when transported on the road would either ask for special regulations liable to a fee or the transport by truck in terms of weight and size become impossible anyway.
Many customers say that a reduction in storage would be the best logistics - by using an inland vessel as a swimming store, this urge is perfectly taken care of.
A well-planned schedule guarantees for a just-in-time arrival at your customer’s.
As environmental protection and thus the choice of means of transport grows more important, you can improve your ecological image by transferring your transports from road and railway-lines to waterways.
When you decide for inland navigation transports you help to reduce the traffic on the road and lower the CO2-emission. Noise pollution is diminished and energy consumption is reduced to a minimum as the energy input is used efficiently.
Another ecological aspect results from the durability of the different conveyances:
| Durability of the different conveyances | ||
![]() |
![]() |

| truck (10 years) |
train (30 years) |
inland
vessel (50 years) |
Besides the transports the inland vessels have already been taken as shooting locations for an advertising film and TV-series and a swimming art gallery.
See? The inland vessel is a good alternative in every respect. Ask for a competent partner, ask us, we know our business!
