COFFEE-SPREADER – THE REVOLUTION OF MULTIMODAL DRY-BULK-LOGISTICS

Montan Speditions GmbH—a specialist in combined transport across Europe with locations in Kapfenberg and Fürnitz—is set to revolutionize multimodal bulk logistics in the summer of 2026 with a "coffee spreader." At the Montan Terminal in Kapfenberg, a standard container stacker has been equipped with a tilting spreader—better known as a "coffee spreader"—in collaboration with the Swedish manufacturer Kalmar.

Multimodal cargo units loaded with all types of bulk goods—such as MOCOs or 20-foot box containers—can be unloaded directly using a reach stacker equipped with this system. The "Coffee-Spreader" is the first of its kind in Central Europe and allows the lifted cargo units to be tilted up to an angle of 55 degrees. It accommodates 20-, 30-, and 40-foot units. The reach stacker picks up the container, the rear doors or flaps are opened, the Coffee-Spreader tilts and/or rotates the unit, and the free-flowing bulk material is then discharged from the container without the need for manual intervention. No additional personnel or equipment are required for the unloading process, which can be integrated with the necessary lifting and lowering of the cargo units. Previously, emptying the containers involved the cumbersome and time-consuming process of lifting them onto trucks with tipping trailers to unload the goods.

The new Coffee-Spreader enables the highly efficient and rapid handling and onward processing of bulk materials, which play a crucial role in raw material logistics. With this investment, Montan Spedition is strengthening its expertise in raw materials while simultaneously ensuring an optimized supply for domestic heavy industry. This additional know-how represents another building block in securing and strengthening Austrian industry.

GO WEST MOCO - SUPER-WEST-CONNECTION - NEW MULTIMODAL DIRECT CONNECTION TO THE WEST

Montan Speditions GmbH, the specialist for combined transport throughout Europe with locations in Kapfenberg and Fürnitz, presents an absolute innovation in the transport market in 2026: a new multimodal direct connection into the West to Duisburg and Rotterdam. Block trains will connect the Linz container terminal with Duisburg twice a week and with Rotterdam once a week. In addition, there will be daily local services to and from Kapfenberg, Vienna South, and Villach South, allowing goods to be loaded onto the block trains. Each round trip will consist of 19x four-axle container wagons, each offering 38 x 30-foot container spaces for the company's own MOCO (MOntan COntainer) fleet. This new multimodal connection is primarily aimed at companies in the heavy goods, recycling, and mining industries that ship bulk goods, craneable goods, or heavy palletized goods. Combined MOCO transport saves 80% CO2 compared to pure road transport and enables a very simple switch from road to environmentally friendly rail. Loading and delivery ("first and last mile") are carried out using trucks, but the actual transport is handled by rail. Therefore, no investments or infrastructure adjustments are required at either the shipper's or the recipient's end to shift transport to rail.

The trains of the new Super West Connection are less than 400 meters long and therefore comparatively short. They can thus easily bypass or circumvent all current construction sites on the German rail network. This makes the new Super Connection particularly attractive, as it guarantees on-time and fast transport at competitive prices.

GO WEST MOCO is the current motto of Montan Spedition. This fast and CO2-neutral rail solution is offered at attractive prices and is currently the only direct multimodal connection between the Linz metropolitan area, the Rhine-Ruhr region, and Rotterdam, thus connecting the largest heavy industry centers in Western Europe.

Founded in Kapfenberg at the end of 1973, Montan Spedition is a logistics partner for the heavy, basic materials, and montanistic industries, primarily serving its customers with multimodal transport solutions. These are environmentally friendly, as they are almost CO2-free, and combine the advantages of road transport with those of rail. The required transport containers, which can be transported both on truck bodies and on rail wagons, are all proprietary developments and are called MOntan COntainers. They are known under the brand name "MOCO." The MOCO fleet currently includes more than 1,400 units, making Montan Spedition one of the largest raw materials logistics companies in Europe. Combined transport (road-rail-road) saves 80% CO2 compared to pure road transport and enables a very simple transition from road to environmentally friendly rail. Loading and delivery ("first and last mile") are carried out by truck units, but the actual transport is handled by rail. Thus, neither the shipper nor the recipient require any investments or infrastructure adjustments to transfer transport to rail. In 2007, the Montan Terminal Kapfenberg opened in the heart of Styria's heavy industry and has since become the gateway to the world for the regional economy.

On Friday, September 20th, 2024, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of Montan Spedition with 250 guests! 
A big thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating this milestone!

To help us remember this special occasion for years to come, here are some impressions from the grand celebration:

The investments made at the Montan Terminal Kapfenberg in recent years are remarkable. A multi-million euro expansion of the terminal took place in 2023 and 2024 of in total 12.000 m2. The terminal was comprehensively expanded with 12.000 m2 and includes 12 new bulk good boxes for the storage of primary and secondary raw materials and 300 hybrid container depot spaces for 20, 30, and 40 ft containers. Ground sealing of the built-up area was minimized by using strip foundations. A total of around €20 million has been invested in infrastructure, additional MOCO units, and new equipment in recent years.

All signs point to growth. Montan Spedition is committed to preserving a healthy environment and will continue to pursue this path consistently and successfully in the coming years.

The MOCO-Bulk-L especially for heavy dry bulk all kind!

The MOCO-Bulk-L is a 30 ft Open-Top and Rear-Open-Container that can be loaded and unloaded from 2 sides. Goods can be loaded into the MOCO-Bulk-L either from the top (Open-Top) or from the rear (Rear-Open). This container innovation is therefore primarily for the transport of loose bulk goods and craneable goods that are loaded and unloaded from the top (e.g. using a crane). The main areas of application of the new container are raw material logistics, e.g. the transport of loose bulk goods, as well as the transport of goods that can be craned, such as steel and metal goods.

MOCO Bulk XL

Written by AUXILIUM on . Posted in Page.

The MOCO-Bulk XL especially for voluminous (eg scrap) or very fine-grained (eg minerals) bulk goods!

The MOCO-Bulk-XL is a 30 ft Open-Top and Rear-Open-Container, which can be loaded and unloaded from 2 sides. Goods can be stuffed into the MOCO-Bulk-XL either from the top (Open-Top) or from the rear (Rear-Open). Thus this container can be applied for the transport of bulk goods, cranable goods and materials which are loaded and unloaded from the top (eg by front loader or crane) or by forklift from the rear. The main applications of the container are the metal-scrap-logistics (ferrous and non-ferrous-scrap) and the transport of mineralic raw materials as gypsum and lime.
