Logistic services of A Logistics cover a wide range of transports – domestic transport, international transport, refrigerated transport for goods requiring maintaining a temperature regime, transports by air and sea, as well as express transports. To sustain these transport services, the company not only maintains connections with transport companies but also has certified transport vehicles suitable for the different types of road transports.
Tractors used by A Logistics
For transporting compositions, A Logistics uses certified tractors. We know that the condition and capabilities of the tractor determine the transport of the entire composition. Therefore we use tractors with power up to 510 hp. The power and torque of the tractor are the main indicators providing the necessary pulling force that guarantees trouble-free transport.
Other features with which A Logistics transport vehicles are equipped
In contemporary specialized transports, additional features are required to ensure safe transport across all seasons. In international transports, certain segments of international roads experience heavy traffic. Therefore mastery of the vehicle, as well as the ability to anticipate, are of fundamental importance. A Logistics’ vehicles are equipped with modern safety and warning features:
- Stability control
- Adaptive control
- Electronic braking system
- Collision risk warning system
Refrigerated transport vehicles
Refrigerated transport vehicles of A Logistics are among the most widely used. They transport goods that require continuous maintenance of a special temperature regime. Such goods include foods, especially dairy products, fruits and vegetables, meat, seafood, as well as pharmaceutical products. To maintain the required regime, A Logistics uses single-temperature and multi-temperature refrigerated transport vehicles, which are usually operated in compositions.
Requirements met by A Logistics’ certified transport vehicles for carrying foods
Maintaining the company’s vehicles in accordance with all transport requirements is necessary to obtain certificates from the Food Agency. For this purpose, A Logistics complies with the following Agency requirements:
- Ensuring cleanliness, through proper sealing, as well as through convenient arrangement for regular cleaning
- Providing suitable tanks and containers for foods in bulk or in liquid form
- Marking transport vehicles, tanks and containers with inscriptions informing that foods are being transported
Certified transport vehicles used for specialized loads
These vehicles are also used in compositions for transporting large volumes of goods. They are specialized to ensure appropriate conditions for the specific type of cargo. A Logistics has the following types of transport vehicles for specialized cargo:
- Garment hangers, or clothes on hangers. This type of transport vehicles are used very often, as clothing trade is highly developed. Usually companies ship and receive small consignments of clothes, but garment hangers are filled because groupage transports are used.
- Transport vehicles for oversized cargo – they are especially important when the sizes of the goods to transport are outside the standard.
- Transport vehicles for transport of dangerous goods – for these vehicles A Logistics complies with the requirements of Euro 4 – European emissions standard, as well as the requirements of the ADR Convention.
