Rhenus Project Logistics has completed the transport of more than 400 tonnes of transformer equipment from China to Canada. The operation supported a major industrial project and included two oversized transformers weighing 80 tonnes each . Multimodal transport from China Rhenus managed the equipment across several project phases using a combination of ocean, rail and road transport. Each transformer was transferred from ocean vessels to rail networks before continuing by specialised heavy-haul vehicles. The company coordinated the cargo from its origin in China through to its final destination in Canada. Heavy-lift operations at project site The project required route assessments, transport planning and specialised lifting operations. Rhenus also managed the final positioning of the transformer equipment at the project site. “Major industrial developments depend on reliable and precisely executed logistics solutions to keep critical infrastructure projects moving forward,” said Bassel Karameh, Country Manager, Project Logistics at Rhenus Canada. He added that the operation required coordination between multiple stakeholders and specialised heavy-lift expertise. Rhenus did not identify the Canadian industrial project or disclose the value of the logistics contract.
