The Transport from Aarhus to central Spain was challenging

GPLN member Altius Projects recently participated in the sea and land transport of molds for building eolic blades which are used in wind energy production.

“The transport took place from Aarhus, Denmark, to a new factory in the centre of Spain,” said Enrique Rodriguez, the commercial manager for Altius.

The cargo was a very unusual size with the length of the molds at 46 meters and the width at 5.35 m.

“Due to the unusual size and shape, without a doubt the overland portion was much more difficult that the ocean part of the move,” said Enrique Rodriguez, “Our discharge port was Bilbao in northeastern Spain and the final destination was in central Spain some 500 km away.”
