Brief report

General Transport is a general contractor for global logistics matching the highest of standards. This is evidenced by the success rate, the technical competence, reliability, the presence, the international certificates and our agents’ personal network of relations who are entrusted with planning, completion and supervising Industrial Plant Logistics – ranging from procuring C parts and components via the transportation of industrial plants by truck, rail, inland waterways, ocean freight and aircraft right through to construction sites in Europe and overseas.


Oversized, extra heavy, fragile and high-value capital goods are in the best of hands with us.


The typical service features of General Transport include low-interface logistics processes from the planning stage to final realization – for example:


  • for turbines and generators,
  • pipelines and conveyor systems,
  • transformers, machine tools,
  • production systems for food,
  • water treatment plants,
  • textile machinery,
  • production systems for the chemical and the food industry,
  • locomotives, rolling stock, rack railroads, girder support structures,
  • prefabricated members for building projects,
  • spare parts and batch parts,
  • as well as oversized and excessively heavy single units.


As general contractors we also provide professional disassembly work, packing service, intermediate storage, transshipments, customs clearance, crane work, the coordination and supervision of internal and external interfaces and hand-over points, and prequalification from authorities and government agencies.

With a weight of around 187,600 kg this was the heaviest single freight item ever carried in aviation history (photo on the left). Five Star general contractor work can also be exciting fun at times …
