INTERMODAL TRANSPORT

Smart. Flexible. Sustainable.

Intermodal transport combines multiple modes of transport – typically rail, sea, and truck – into a single, integrated logistics solution. It’s ideal for long-distance deliveries and businesses focused on sustainability and cost-effectiveness.

At AsstrA, we develop and manage customized intermodal solutions across Europe and beyond. We deliver reliability, cost efficiency, and reduced environmental impact with seamless transitions between modes and a single point of contact – all in one smart package.

WHY CHOOSE INTERMODAL TRANSPORT?

Compared to single-mode logistics, intermodal solutions offer a powerful combination of benefits:

▪ Optimized cost and transit time

Perfect for mid-to-long-distance shipments (800-1000+ km), intermodal shipping blends speed and cost-efficiency.

▪ Reduced carbon footprint

Using rail and sea transportation more often significantly lowers emissions – by up to 90% compared to using only road transport.

▪ Better capacity and reliability

Avoid road congestion, weekend driving bans, and seasonal capacity shortages.

▪ Access to EU infrastructure

We connect your cargo with key European rail terminals, ports, and industrial hubs.

▪ Single Logistics Partner

One point of contact for end-to-end coordination, including customs, warehousing, and documentation.
