Technical support for vehicles

Coding

To access intermodal transport, vehicles must be certified for rail transport. On behalf of the customer, Hupac codifies vehicles, ensuring compatibility between vehicles and wagons on the desired traffic route.

 

ILU-Code

Since 2011, a single identification system for intermodal loading units has been in place. Containers, swap bodies and semi-trailers must have an ILU or BIC code to be accepted in unaccompanied combined transport in Europe.

 

The European ILU code is defined in standard EN 13044. It is used to identify non-ILU containers, swap bodies and semi-trailers in combined transport in Europe. The BIC code is a similar identifier defined in ISO 6346, which is primarily intended to identify ISO containers.

 

The ILU code can be requested via www.ilu-code.eu. Our technical service is available for further clarification.

 

Investments in vehicles

If the customer plans to build specific vehicles for combined transport, our technical support service is available to provide technical advice and coordination with the manufacturer.

Accident in Busto Arsizio: Hupac is not involved

At the accident with emission of irritants, which occurred on 13.03.2014 in the vicinity of the terminal Busto Arsizio, Hupac is not involved. The affected cistern had already completed the transportation by train and had been handed over to the owner to continue the journey on the road. The transport company had parked the tank in a rented depot at Fidia SpA Magazzini Generali.  Fidia, a company of the Hupac Group, is not involved in the activities within the depot.

Hupac acknowledges the effective event management on the part of institutions and emergency forces. The terminal, which is located in close proximity to the accident location, was able to continue its work as usual. The approximately two hundred Hupac collaborators of the area have suffered no damage. "Fortunately, the emergency could be resolved quickly," said Roberto Paciaroni, director of Fidia SpA, "we have received confirmation of the effectiveness of our emergency management system in close cooperation with the public emergency services."
