FATS is Shipping Incredible Vehicles that are Saying Goodbye to South Africa

The market for classic and vintage cars (and some luxury ones too) has really began to boom. The South African economy and market makes the country a perfect haven for international buyers who are looking at buying cheap and then exporting the vehicles back to their home countries!

Formag Group Loaded and Shipped Blast Furnace Parts from Ukraine to the United Arab Emirates

Formag received parts of the furnace, which were delivered on trucks, at port, unloaded them, developed stowage diagrams to load them on flatrack and in standard containers, loaded them, arranged proper lashing and dunnage, and shipped to UAE. Given that the parts were different in dimensions and weight, it was necessary to ensure their safe stowage and lashing for further sea delivery. And Formag managed to achieve this goal. In this photo the the containers were on their way from Pivdennyi to Jebel Ali.

VTG Project Logistics Started a Mega-project for an Air Seperation Plant in Schwarzheide, Germany

A large number of components are being shipped from Asia to Schwarzheide, Germany, where ground was broken for an air separation plant that will later on supply process gases for the new BASF cathode active materials production plant. This plant will be equipped with leading process technology and enable the supply of around 400,000 full electrical vehicles per year with BASF battery materials.

Last week, the transport of a 24 meter long storage vessel started from Magdeburg in Lower Saxony to Schwarzheide in Brandenburg. The transport combination was 53 meter long and weighed about 150 tons in total. It was a matter of centimeters when passing some bridges on the German motorway. Other large parts were reloaded from inland waterway vessels onto truck in Saxony and are currently on their way up North to Schwarzheide. Due to the load height of 6 meters, numerous traffic lights had to be turned and electrical lines disconnected during the transport.

But that’s just the beginning. VTG’s Project Logistics team will be quite busy over the next months managing more exceptional heavylift shipments which are part of this project.

FATS South Africa Fills Us In on The Democratic Republic of the Congo

What’s on in the DRC?

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is a country shrouded with misconceptions. Yes, it may be a land with multiple internal battles that gain most of the publicity for the country. However, the country is an incredibly mineral rich land and thus there are many mining operations that operate from the DRC. Kolwezi in the south is one hottest road freight destinations at the moment for imports into the DRC with daily breakbulk and project cargo operations happening.

FATS has the support from expert transport partners who ensure the best service to and from the DRC. Contact them today to discuss a global transport solution.
