Sinoboom chooses rail delivery from China
31 January 2024
Sinoboom has started deliveries from China to Europe by rail using specially chartered Sinotrans freight trains.
The first deliveries have seen 500 Sinoboom MEWPs delivered to Europe from the company’s factory in Changsha.
The China-Europe Railway Express has developed to become an effective and efficient mode of international transportation, being reliable and environmentally friendly.
Sinotrans is one of China’s largest logistics companies, operating an international rail freight network from four centres, including Changsha, and offering customised services, such as collection, packing and customs declaration preparations. The result is dramatically improved timescales, saving almost a month of transportation time when compared to previous 50-day overseas transport by sea freight, said Sinoboom.
In addition to time savings, transport by rail represents a greener service compared to sea transport which creates a range of air and sea pollutants. With an increasing number of partners expressing concerns about CO2 emissions, said Sinoboom, rail freight provides an additional layer of environmental accountability.
Susan Xu, CEO of Sinoboom, stated, “Sinoboom has developed rapidly in overseas markets in recent years. By actively exploring efficient, localised, and high-quality diversified service solutions, the total revenue from overseas markets has increased over 100% in 2023.
“Now, with the help of the efficient transport method of the China-Europe Railway Express, not only can orders be quickly delivered, but also green and low-carbon transportation is achieved. This is a real milestone for Sinoboom and Sinoboom’s partners.”
