The DSCM digital platform allows you to keep a complete overview of all transport data.

  • Customised route planning and capacity check
  • Centralised booking via digital systems
  • Real-time status through track & trace tools

Cross-border rail transport

Rail transport requires coordinated processes at the borders, especially for transport with non-EU countries. Dörrenhaus ensures documented processes, close coordination with customs authorities and end-to-end transport monitoring. This keeps your supply chain stable and predictable.

China - Europe rail route: fast and reliable planning

The Rail link between China and Europe has established itself as a reliable alternative to sea freight. With transit times of 18-24 days, rail freight is significantly faster than transport routes via the Suez Canal, which take 40-50 days.

The Małaszewicze hub in Poland is a central transhipment point where the switch to lorry transport creates cost benefits. Dörrenhaus organises both full and part loads on this route - fully monitored, efficiently and safely.
