ÖBB Rail Cargo Group is investing in 300 multimodal swap bodies (curtain sider swap bodies) in 2023. In doing so, the freight transport company is responding to the enormous demand from customers and expanding its equipment portfolio to close the gap between road and rail and thus offer efficient end-to-end logistics solutions.

Flexibility at the highest level

With an external length of more than 13 metres (45 ft) and an internal height of more than 2.5 metres, the new swaps will soon be on the road throughout Europe. The swap bodies are universally loadable. That means they can be loaded and unloaded from all sides and above. It sets them apart from conventional containers. Another advantage is that they can be used for all kinds of goods across all sectors (e.g., in beverage logistics, chemicals, and automotive).

With the help of innovative equipment, RCG enables an efficient and seamless end-to-end logistics solution across all sectors. It makes it even easier to use RCG's TransFER products, including pre- and on-carriage - even without your own siding.

The equipment added to the RCG portfolio is interesting for all customers looking for universal and crane-compatible loading units. It applies to many industries and products - from food to steel to wood and paper. The focus is on pallet goods, which, in the past, were classically transported by truck.

Unmissable: New branding in bright red tones

A good design determines the face of any company. Especially as an international rail logistics company, it is vital to make a clear visual statement. The advertising spaces of the ÖBB Rail Cargo Group are the trains. The new curtain sider swap bodies are branded in the bright ÖBB traffic red.
