Transporting 200,000 tons of railway components from Korea to Australia

For nearly a decade, DSV Korea has been the preferred international freight forwarder for a global tech provider. We were a natural partner when this customer decided to built a 340-kilometer railway in Australia. The work included transporting 10 shipments of concrete sleepers per month with a total volume of 200,000 tons from the manufacturer in Saraburi to Sattahip Port in Chonburi Province for export to Hedland Port in Australia. The volume required 6,450 road trips using 25-ton flatbeds over a 10-month period. A 6,200-sqm laydown area was specially prepared at the Sattahip Port for the sole purpose of the cargo. DSV fulfilled all customer requirements with on-time delivery and ability to meet tight schedules.
