He highlights that intermodal transport is not only an environmentally friendly solution but , in some regions , the only feasible option due to geographical constraints . However , Ørjan must also consider the financial aspect , and emphasizes the need to balance sustainability with cost efficiency . “ Trucking is more cost-effective , but only within a 300-kilometer radius . Any distance beyond that and we see that the intermodal solutions give us a more competitive edge .
“ There is also another important reason why we rely on intermodal transport , and this is to do with the availability of drivers . We are located on the outskirts of Europe , and there are not many international transport activities going on here compared to Central Europe or the UK ,” shares Ørjan . “ So , one of our challenges is labor over the globally busy periods , like Christmas . The foreign truck drivers go home to be with their families , and they won ’ t return until the middle of January .
