Multitude of Transportation Models by Ekol
Ekol makes use of various transportation models including road, RoRo-road, and intermodal transportation, in the light of criteria such as the transit period, tonnage, and the characteristics of the product.
Road
Road is a plain model of transportation. It is based on the transportation of products from Turkey to Ekol consolidation centers via highways, and delivery, again via highways, from these centers to destinations.
In the same manner, the importation of goods and commodities entails transportation into consolidation centers via highways from all over Europe and consolidation in those centers for further transportation and delivery via highways to relevant destinations in Turkey.
Cold Chain
Ekol offers service to cold chain distrubition demands, such as demand generated by food and medical sectors. The products can be tracked and traced continuously all along the road and temperature control is provided through the technologic infrastructure in the vehicles. The transportation of the products can be handled between 2 - 8 C° temperature interval; as well as in a controlled environment between 15 - 25 C°.
RoRo - Road
This model makes use of two different mode of transportation, maritime and road. Due to tonnage limitations imposed in European highways, this model serves as an alternative for particularly high tonnage products. The system is based on the transportation of products from Istanbul, Izmir, and Mersin Ports to the Port of Trieste via Ro-Ro, and delivery from Trieste to relevant destinations, via highways.
In case of imports, the products are brought via highways to the Port of Trieste, and consolidated there. Then they are transported to target ports via Ro-Ro.
Intermodal
Intermodal is a transportation model wherein three distinct means of transportation is used; namely maritime, railway, and road transportation. The system is based on the transportation of products from Istanbul, Izmir, and Mersin Ports to the Port of Trieste via Ro-Ro; from Trieste to Ludwigshafen via railways; and delivery from Ludwigshafen to relevant destinations, via roads.
In case of imports, the products are brought via roads to Ludwigshafen and consolidated there for transportation to the Port of Trieste via railways; and then brought into Turkish ports via Ro-Ro.
