Head of Intermodal Logistics

Thorsten Lüttig

"The trick is to use the advantages of each individual mode of transport and to ideally combine rail, road or even ship. In this respect, we have very specific know-how in our team and share this with our colleagues in sales and product management within the scope of customer projects. We take a holistic view of every transport solution and, if necessary, incorporate innovative transhipment methods."

"Rail stands for sustainable logistics like no other mode of transport. It is correspondingly relevant for the consumer goods, pulp & paper and timber industries. With our transport and rail logistics solutions tailored to industry-specific customer requirements, we bring together what belongs together. My team and I are pulling together to transfer as much volume as possible from road to rail and thus actively contribute to climate protection."
