Postal codes covered
The region's outbound profile centres on industrial chemicals and food processing. The Leuna-Merseburg-Buna chemical triangle south of Halle is one of Europe's largest chemical complexes, shipping raw materials and equipment outbound. Magdeburg's central position on the A2 makes it a natural consolidation node, while sugar, cereal and food-processing industries add ambient food volume. Palletised LTL groupage gathers these flows for Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia.
As an intra-EU lane, only CMR documentation applies — no customs clearance, no duties. Capacity is ambient/dry LTL with no temperature-controlled freight; ADR-classified goods in classes 2, 3, 4.1, 5.1, 6.1, 8 and 9 are accepted, and full-trailer volumes are quoted case by case.
Magdeburg, Halle, Dessau-Roßlau and Wittenberg are the region's collection points — Halle feeds chemical export volume while Magdeburg serves as the central consolidation node for the Spain-bound return leg.

Logistics & infrastructure for Saxony-Anhalt → Spain freight
Collection across Saxony-Anhalt draws on the 06, 29, 38 and 39 postcode areas, with Magdeburg, Halle, Dessau-Roßlau and Wittenberg feeding a single Spain-bound consolidation. Chemical and equipment loads from the Leuna-Merseburg-Buna triangle south of Halle and ambient sugar, cereal and food-processing volume are palletised as LTL groupage. From Magdeburg's A2 position the freight runs the A14, then the reverse corridor through Strasbourg and La Jonquera back to our Castellar del Vallès hub over roughly 1,900 km — return-leg backhaul, arranged on request, intra-EU with CMR paperwork only.
