INTELLIGENT LOGISTICS SOLUTIONS FOR THE METAL INDUSTRY

When it comes to logistics for the metalworking industry, special solutions are needed that can be met with experience, expertise and a modern IT infrastructure in a targeted and cost-saving manner. Honold is prepared for all the challenges of the industry and, in addition to classic, Europe-wide transport services, offers additional services such as warehousing or buffer storage, which can be scaled exactly to your needs. Our offer is aimed not only at metalworking companies, but also at the recycling industry and the heavy goods industry.

VERSATILE LOGISTICS FOR METAL LOGISTICS IN ALL AREAS

Our range of services for the metalworking companies in Germany and Europe is versatile. Regardless of whether it involves the transport of long and heavy goods, the disposal of chips or metal scrap or the safe delivery of coils for the metal industry, Honold always has the right solution. At the same time, we stand for highest reliability by meeting delivery deadlines and avoiding damage through appropriate transport solutions.

In addition, our logistics chains are particularly time-saving. This is how we separate road from factory transports by having our freight carrier partners carry out unloading and loading tasks in the plants with quick couplers for swap bodies and semitrailers. At the same time, service life in plants is reduced with the help of sophisticated, software-based depot management and charging control. However, our services do not end with the transport, but also include warehousing, buffer storage, production supply or the placement of personnel.

• Solutions for the recycling industry

With more than 180 swap bodies and over 30 of our own semi-trailers, we are geared for recycling transports. Our truck fleets have u.a. over tarpaulin with sliding roof, reinforced sidewalls for the loose transport of shavings / scraps or coil troughs as well as special load securing systems. In addition, we advise you on the creation of disposal structures for accumulating metal scrap. In order to produce cost-optimally, our transport processes are continuously improved, i.a. with milkruns or meeting traffic. By constantly optimizing cooperation with our Eastern European carriers, we can ensure a more favorable cost structure. Our employees have the necessary language skills for this.

• Highest competence in the heavy goods sector

For the tour planning and the positioning of large packages with a length of up to 13.6 meters, we use special software that is tailored to the requirements of long goods logistics. It allows, for example, the visual representation of the individual packages in the loading units used, taking into account axle loads and center of gravity. In addition, our systems can provide recommendations for attaching cargo securing equipment. You benefit from maximum safety because our load securing systems have been certified by Dekra.
