Rail transport is an efficient and sustainable way to move large volumes of containers. However, the combination of long distances and high g-forces requires specific attention to cargo stability. With the right cargo securing methods, damage during international transport can also be prevented.
International transport can take several days and often involves multiple transhipments. During this time, the cargo is exposed to constant forces and movements. Careful load securing prevents goods from shifting or becoming damaged.
Rail transport places greater demands on load securing than road transport. This is due to the significantly higher g-forces. Damage frequently occurs because load securing on the trailer is based on road transport, without taking intermodal rail transport into account.
International rail transport places high demands on safety and reliability. Veltkamp’s load securing solutions ensure stability across a wide range of applications in rail transport. This ensures that the load remains protected from departure to arrival.
