Bertschi/Dreier join forces

The multimodal logistics specialist is investing heavily in intermodal transport assets and terminal facilities in Europe and China

The multimodal chemical logistics specialist has installed three solar panel plants with an annual output of 240,000 kWh, almost one third of the 750,000 kWh of electrical power consumed annually at its intensively-used Birrfeld terminal in Switzerland

Sales rose by 13% in 2021 to a record CHF1.02B (€979.2M) “despite a challenging market environment,” due in large measure to growth in Asia

As reported by WorldCargo News Online, PSA Pra’ (Voltri, Genoa) now has a regular intermodal train link with Basel, offering Swiss shippers and importers an alternative to the Antwerp-Rotterdam-Zeebrugge range ports and also offering steel wheel connectivity for points north of Switzerland for the Italian port. The contracted rail haulier is Switzerland’s BLS.

Swiss-based chemicals and biomanufacturing group Lonza and chemicals logistics specialist Bertschi recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of the intermodal terminal in Visp

Global logistics service provider Bertschi has officially opened its new plastics hub of more than 25,000 m2, as part of Antwerp Zomerweg Terminal (AZT)
