TX Logistik and Wascosa have signed a cooperation agreement. The two companies are joining forces in the freight wagon rental business and will, in particular, market the NiKRASA handling system for non-craneable trailers.

As part of the agreement, Wascosa will be ordering 125 NiKRASA plates from Mercitalia subsidiary TX Logistik. The deal is valued at 3 million euros. The two companies intend to further organise events in Europe to convince market participants of the benefits of the system.

“The NiKRASA platform enables the handling of non-craneable semi-trailers, which currently make up around 90 per cent of European truck fleets. They can be loaded from road to rail in just two minutes”, the two companies explain in a press release.

“Changes to the existing standards in the terminals, on the wagon and on the railway are not necessary for this. In addition to classic semi-trailers, silos and trailers with fixed body, mega-trailers and trailers without a body and container chassis can also be put on the rail.” The companies also clarify that if the NiKRASA loading frame stays empty in the wagon, swap bodies and containers can still be loaded as usual.

Cooperation beyond NiKRASA

The signed agreement also provides for cooperation more generally between TX Logistik and Wascosa. “In the current tense market situation, this partnership is a sign that we are looking to the future,” comments Ugo Dibennardo, CEO of TX Logistik. “In addition to wagon rental and the marketing of NiKRASA, we also want to work closely together on transport solutions and innovative developments and drive these forward together and with other partners.”
