As trade between Poland and the Nordics continues to grow, the need for flexible and dependable logistics solutions has never been greater. In response to this demand, Hecksher is investing in a new fleet of modern trailers – boosting capacity and improving the flow of goods across key Northern European corridors.
In partnership with TIP Group, Hecksher has added 15 new XL-certified curtain-side trailers, purpose-built for RoRo (roll-on/roll-off) shipping operations. These trailers are now branded and in use, supporting customers moving goods between Poland, Sweden, Finland and Norway.
This investment follows Hecksher’s recent strategic expansion in Poland, where we’ve established a new office and warehouse facility. Together, these steps strengthen our operational footprint and enable more responsive logistics solutions in one of Europe’s fastest-growing trade hubs.
Supporting supply chains with greater flexibility
These trailers will improve our service offerings and flexibility for customers, allowing us to better support tailored needs across key North European corridors.
- RoRo readiness
These trailers are specifically designed and equipped for roll-on/roll-off ferry transport and will primarily operate on routes between Poland–Sweden, Poland–Finland and Poland-Norway. Their use on roads is limited to cases where it’s critically needed. This setup reduces reliance on long-haul trucking and enhances intermodal flexibility. - Lighter construction for greater efficiency
Built with aluminium floor planks and rims, the trailers help reduce total weight – supporting lower fuel use and emissions during operation. - Advanced telematics (TIP Insight)
Real-time tracking, route and speed monitoring, and data-driven insights contribute to greater visibility, safety, and performance management. - Enhanced safety and compliance
Features such as LED lighting and upgraded tarpaulins align with high industry standards for reliability, visibility, and lower energy consumption.
A strategic step with trusted partners
This investment is made through collaboration with TIP Group, whose expertise in trailer solutions adds value to our ongoing development.
“At TIP, we are proud to support Hecksher with a fleet of modern, high-performance trailers — designed to drive efficiency and operational excellence,” says Piotr Suwała, Country Manager Poland, TIP Group.
“This marks a key step in our development of intermodal transport through RoRo shipping operations. It enables smarter route planning, optimizes drivers’ working hours, and improves their work-life balance – a strong response to the ongoing driver shortage,” says Jakub Karabin, Road Freight Director at Hecksher Poland Sp. z o.o.
Investing in long-term performance
This fleet expansion is not only an operational upgrade — it’s part of Hecksher’s broader commitment to smarter, more flexible logistics across Northern Europe.
