Wood transports shifted from road to rail


This week saw DB Cargo Logistics and customer binderholz dispatch their first load of cross-laminated timber on its journey from Burgbernheim in northwest Bavaria (Germany) to Sweden.

 

Previously, binderholz sent its products by road, but it has now switched to green rail services: with the support of DB Cargo Logistics, the company spent a number of months working to reopen a disused private siding located on its production premises. binderholz and DB Cargo Logistics have enjoyed a close business partnership for many years.

 

Cross-laminated timber products are made at a number of sites, including Burgbernheim, and, from now on, they will be transported to construction sites in Scandinavia and France by rail on open or covered wagons. (ben)
