CUTTING-EDGE
LOGISTICSCENTRES
During the last 110 years we have developed from a horse and cart owner to a reliable transport company and innovative logistics specialist. In the course of history we have continuously expanded our logistics and storage areas, ensuring cutting-edge technical standards.
As such, we are now represented by two large logistics centres in the heart of Europe. Both sites are highly conveniently located.
The Rombacher Hütte site in Bochum is located just a few kilometres from numerous customers in the steel processing industry and major motorways. Through our site at Duisport Rheinhausen, the world’s largest inland port, we are directly connected to the North Sea’s western ports. At the same time, our Duisburg platform on the Logport site is an important hub for freight traffic from and to the sea ports, as well as to Southern Europe and over the new ‘Silk Road’ to China. Take a look at the following overview to get a more detailed insight into what our centres have to offer.
