Case Study: Rivertex shortens China-to-Europe transit times with DSV rail transport

Rivertex - Customer Case Study

Rivertex, a manufacturer and wholesaler of technical textiles, needed a faster and more cost-effective way to move an urgent shipment from China to the Netherlands. With sea freight slowed to 30–35 days and air freight too expensive, the company turned to DSV for its first rail transport solution.

DSV arranged the rail shipment from China to Europe, providing updates along the way and ensuring on-time delivery. The result was a smooth, well-handled transport that shortened transit time compared with sea freight, while offering a lower-cost alternative to air freight; Rivertex said the job “went very well and was handled smoothly by DSV.”
