Modal shift policy

One of Hupac's main objectives is the growth of combined transport in transalpine traffic through Switzerland. In 2024, Hupac Intermodal transported 536,000 road consignments or 10.4 million net tonnes in transalpine traffic through Switzerland. In total, the Hupac Group moved 950,000 road consignments.

 

Institutions

We maintain a constructive and transparent relationship with Swiss and European institutions. Our many years of experience are valued and in demand, for example for the further development of transport policy framework conditions. We are a member of numerous trade associations and working groups that are dedicated to promoting our industry.

 

Local communities

Hupac is committed to the development of local communities by supporting projects and associations.

Hupac Shuttle Net: new products and services from 1.1.2025

Hupac starts the new year with new connections and improved services, designed to make intermodal operations even more efficient and sustainable.

Gent <=> Piadena

Hupac will activate a new shuttle train between the industrial areas of Gent in Belgium and Piadena, located south-east of Milan. The connection will start with a frequency of 3 roundtrips per week – more to be expected after the initial phase.

Zeebrugge CLdN <=> Piacenza

We are increasing the frequency of our intermodal connection from 3 to 4 roundtrips per week, strengthening the stability and transit time of the service. Good to know: the new Piacenza infrastructure will be operational early next year.

Busto Arsizio <=> Padova

A positive development also for this short distance shuttle train in north Italy, which enables efficient connections between northeast and northwest Italy and offers synergies with the entire Hupac network. The frequency will be brought from 4 to 6 roundtrips per week from 1.1.2025.


Malmö <=> Köln Nord

The new transhipment facility in Germany is the Köln Nord terminal. Thanks to this change, our customers enjoy a higher frequency of gateway connections to the south and therefore a better network stability.
