Our most recent Zero Emission Groupage project aims to gradually eliminate emissions; it is a highly scalable model to provide increasingly extensive and widespread coverage of a service that prioritizes zero-impact freight transport,» said Paolo Bortignon, Director of the Padova branch.

We have been operating in the area as a branch of the logistics and transport operator from Alto Adige since 1986, starting from a small warehouse in Via Tommaseo with 8 employees, constantly developing until we reached the current plant with 13,500 sqm and 71 employees, where we pursue the path of customer satisfaction daily!» concludes Paolo Bortignon.
