Why choose Samskip Italy?
1. Reliable partner for your business

3. Extensive European network
Thanks to our dense European network, Samskip Italy ensures your goods move smoothly to key markets across Northern and Western Europe.
4. Scalability
Our logistics network scales with your business. We handle sudden changes, last-minute volume shifts, and evolving routes, all while maintaining supply chain stability.
Why go multimodal?
Multimodal transport is becoming the smart choice for businesses and logistics providers across Europe. It creates a seamless flow of goods that is cost-efficient, sustainable, and reliable.
- Cost efficiency: Lower overall transportation costs by combining different modes, especially on long-distance routes.
- Faster deliveries: Optimised routes and reduced transit times mean your cargo arrives quicker.
- Environmental benefits: Utilising rail and sea transport significantly reduces CO2 emissions and supports cleaner supply chains.
- Flexibility and reliability: Our services offer greater flexibility in route planning and demand changes.
- Simplified coordination: We simplify communication and coordination, reducing the risk of delays and errors.
Overall, multimodal transport provides a balanced approach to logistics, combining the strengths of various transportation modes to achieve cost savings, efficiency, and sustainability.
Our freight forwarding services are designed to provide flexibility, reliability, and full visibility from start to finish. We offer full truck road transport solutions to cover areas where our intermodal service cannot reach, as well as faster road transport options along existing intermodal routes for time-sensitive shipments. Whether you require Full Truck Load (FTL), Less Than Truckload (LTL), or groupage, we tailor each shipment to meet your specific needs.
Our team provides:
- End-to-end management of all shipments
- Real-time shipment tracking for complete transparency
- Tailor-made solutions with a dedicated contact for your freight
- Full truck services with tautliner, box, or temperature-controlled
- Last-minute transport options to meet urgent deadlines
Our Milan team oversees and coordinates all freight flows to and from Italy, including:
- Spot business
- Cross-docking (via pre/post carriage)
- Road transport solutions
- Alternative equipment options
No matter how complex your logistics needs are, Samskip ensures your freight keeps moving, reliably, efficiently, and across all of Europe.
