Are you ready for change? Supply chain solutions

With customisation, innovation and valuable insight through data, Van den Bosch delivers so much more than just transport. As The Supply Changer in Bulk, we connect needs to concepts. Challenges to solutions. Data to insights. And change to improvement. Are you ready for change?

By combining logistical knowledge and experience with the unprecedented possibilities of data, technology and automation, we, our employees and our customers are in a state of constant evolution. Our innovative perspective on bulk logistics helps you move forward.

New possibilities with forwarding

We look beyond our own loading units and exploit the full potential of the network. This includes both road and intermodal transport. Curious about the possibilities?

Based on the specifications, geography and your preferences, we select several transport solutions for your liquid and dry bulk products. Intermodal or road transport? Carried out with our own loading units or using the capacity of the network? The choice is yours. We also make the potential CO2 savings transparent on our proposal, because bulk transport can not only be more efficient, but greener too.

Get to know Bulkio

Bulkio is the driving force behind our forwarding solutions. Developed within Van den Bosch, this online matching platform brings together supply and demand in the market. Over 1,500 carriers have already joined Bulkio, and the platform continues to grow. We use the latest technologies to digitally connect our partners. In doing so, we are continuously reducing empty kilometres and making transport more sustainable.

These partners are not just carriers. We work with local specialists who know their trade. Quality and safety is our top priority. Through access requirements, performance management and assessments, we work continuously on quality assurance to ensure that your goods are always in good hands.

Optimal efficiency on-site

Bulk logistics is more than just transport. With our pre-loading and on-site concepts, we also manage on-site logistics. Extra flexibility and no unnecessary waiting times.

Every day, our drivers and transport partners take care of the safe transport, loading and unloading of your bulk products. But we go one step further. We are also entrusted with managing on-site logistics. With a pre-loading or on-site concept, we avoid unnecessary waiting on site and create optimal efficiency in the delivery of your raw materials.

We have years of experience with on-site concepts within the food and chemical industries, also cooperating with other carriers. The principle is simple: drivers uncouple and an on-site coordinator takes care of loading or unloading at an appropriate time. After all, nothing is more inefficient than unnecessary waiting. With our on-site concepts, we let drivers be drivers again and improve the efficiency on-site.

Conditioned transport, also intermodal

Your liquids always remain at the right temperature thanks to our insulated tank containers with temperature sensors, and heating & cooling units in our intermodal network.

Heated transport a challenge for intermodal transport? Not for Van den Bosch. When it comes to developments in conditioned transport, we are always on the move – starting with our own equipment. Our insulated tank containers are equipped with temperature sensors that allow us to monitor the product temperature 24/7 and provide this information via FreightInsight. We can also make adjustments en route thanks to heating and cooling units at strategic locations in our intermodal network.

This combination makes it possible to 'modal shift' product flows that previously could not be transported intermodally, thereby achieving substantial CO2 savings. Of course, we also provide containers with heating and cooling units for active heating and cooling during transport.

Flexibility with floating stock

Choose flexibility with floating stock. We position extra product stock near the unloading location, so your liquid and dry bulk products are always within reach.

Thanks to floating stock, your bulk products are always available on demand. We place our containers at a terminal near the unloading location, so we can deliver the product quickly at the desired time. This gives the recipient maximum flexibility to bring forward or postpone an order. We not only manage the stock on site, but also offer insight into the current stock via our FreightInsight dashboard.

Floating stock also helps absorb disruptions in the supply chain, such as extreme weather or overdue track maintenance. Because as much as we strive for complete security of supply, we cannot influence everything. With floating stock, we offer you maximum flexibility and continuity, whatever the circumstances.

The power of Quintiq

Van den Bosch has been working with Quintiq since 2016. This Advanced Planning System (APS) helps us set up complex supply chains, manage logistics flows and forecast future needs. Customer-specific agreements, such as restrictions on prior loads, are also captured and secured in Quintiq. This allows us to effectively manage the complexity of any supply chain while ensuring maximum efficiency. With new innovations, such as the Quintiq Optimizer, we continue to evolve.

Real-time visibility with FreightInsight

Van den Bosch strongly invest in the use of data in the supply chain. We make this data, mostly coming from our Smart Load Units, available via our customer portal FreightInsight. A customised dashboard to meet your information needs both proactively and on demand. For example, detailed shipment data, current statuses, product temperature, container locations and access to transport documents. You also receive notifications of the ETA, status changes and weight differences.
