DACHSER expands air freight portfolio between Singapore and Frankfurt

DACHSER Singapore has expanded its service portfolio on the route between Singapore and Frankfurt to include a daily air freight service. Customers will benefit from secure capacity with a transit time of 72 hours, as well as access to the logistics provider's tight-knit European transport network from Frankfurt.

DACHSER Singapore has expanded its service portfolio on the route between Singapore and Frankfurt to include a daily air freight service.

Singapore Airport is one of the largest airports in Asia and an important hub to Europe. Shipments arriving in Europe at the gateway in Frankfurt are fed into DACHSER's comprehensive European network there and distributed seamlessly to European destinations. High delivery frequencies enable fast and reliable transport of goods. The eLogistics online platform informs customers about all processes along the supply chain and provides real-time information for shipment tracking.

Sustainable option for lower greenhouse gas emissions possible

Air freight customers can choose the additional booking option "Sustainable Fuel." The service is offered on all routes worldwide for an additional charge. By blending "Sustainable Aviation Fuel," or "SAF," air freight shipments can be transported with 30 percent fewer greenhouse gas emissions. To prove that the fuel has been purchased and that the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions can be credited to the carbon footprint, each customer receives an emissions report on request, as well as a certificate in the following year stating the emissions saved, the quantity of SAF liters used, the year of consumption, and the exact SAF raw material base.

Whether importing, exporting or optimizing supply chain processes, DACHSER's network ensures smooth processes and on-time deliveries for companies of all sizes. For air freight shipments, DACHSER offers its customers maximum process reliability through firmly defined processes as well as reliable transit times and capacities.

DACHSER Rail Service: From Europe to Asia and back again
With DACHSER Rail Service, we offer a time- and cost-optimized alternative to air and sea freight. DACHSER Rail Services not only provides a reliable rail link between China’s main economic regions and Europe but also serves both routes with a high frequency of departures from over 30 European and Chinese cities. The “New Silk Road” and the “Trans-Siberian Route” thus connect the economic regions of China and Europe. 
 
Customers can order both groupage (LCL) and full container (FCL) transports. The respective routes for goods transport are via Zabaikalsk/Manzhouli in Russia, Dostyk/Alashankou in Kazakhstan, Erlian in Mongolia, Brest/Malaszewicze in Belarus, and Chop in Ukraine. The connection to DACHSER’s European network enables door-to-door service in collection and delivery. The DACHSER Rail Service Network is also an economically viable solution for your exports and imports to and from China.
 
Since the train journey along the Silk Road usually takes 16 to 22 days, it closes a gap between the ocean route, which takes up to 36 days, and much faster but more expensive air freight.
 
Your benefits:
  • Time- and cost-optimized connection of important economic areas in China and Europe
  • Cost-saving alternative to air freight in time-critical situations
  • Up to two weeks shorter transit time compared to ocean freight
  • Railway terminal in the hinterland instead of overland transport from/to the seaport
  • Optimized supply chain due to high departure density several times per week
  • Reduced carbon footprint: up to 90% less CO2 emissions compared to air freight
  • Exclusive Rail Service desks in Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hamburg for competent processing of your bookings

For your tailor-made solution and custom offer, get in touch with your local DACHSER contact person.

Fundamental measures to cope with the current Covid-19 situation

After numerous countries have imposed restrictions on public life and some have closed their borders (currently for passenger transport), we are confronted with a number of challenges as a result of the current corona situation. Due to accompanying restrictions to contain the spread of the virus, DACHSER is faced with delivery restrictions in regions or recipient groups (e.g.: catering and retail trade with the exception of essential goods). We are therefore dependent on the support of our customers.

We ask our customers only to hand over consignments for transport where it can be guaranteed that the goods will be accepted by the recipient. If we are unable to deliver consignments due to restrictions in the destination area or closure of a business, we will return consignments already accepted for a fee so that they can be returned to the sender's care as quickly as possible.  Further shipments to these areas or to final recipients will then no longer be accepted. This serves to avoid idle times and thus damage risks in the interest of all.

Of course we also offer individual possibilities of interim storage in contract logistics if required. For the reservation of storage capacities we ask our customers to contact us. We regret the inconvenience this may cause, but we consider it our duty to point out possible scenarios.

Our teams worldwide will stay in contact with our customers. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with your contact at the relevant DACHSER branch to discuss your particular situation and make further arrangements for your freight shipments.

All news on the current situation can be found on our respective DACHSER country websites.
