CH Robinson opens ChemSolutions logistics division

Global third-party logistics company, CH Robinson Worldwide, will launch a new division called ChemSolutions, which will provide logistics solutions to chemical manufacturing and distribution.

ChemSolutions will offer multi-modal transport solutions to chemical shippers and guarantee the safety and sustainability of shipments.

Developments in Eastern European manufacturing units have increased the demand for transportation solutions. Most of the shipping is taking place in countries stretching from East to West Europe or is transcontinental. However, since the European truck industry lacks service capabilities, 3PL carriers like C.H. Robinson are taking advantage of the new opportunity.
