of Ontime Logistics AS, which has activities in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Ontime Logistics offers transport and logistics services primarily related to road transport.

Ecological importance One important aspect of improvement at DSV Road is the company’s enhanced environmental commitment. The DSV ECO Transport policy is continually moving forward; over 60 per cent of DSV Road vehicles and the vehicles used by its network of carefully selected subcontractors are now classified as Euro IV or V (emission standard V is currently the highest classification available for trucks). The company spokesperson added, “As a business that is reliant on transportation, we believe that the ecological responsibility of our fleet is of paramount importance to our continued success. It’s not just good for the environment, it’s good for business. That is why we introduced the DSV ECO Transport policy, and our size and smart approach enables us to offer economies of scale and constant streamlining of transport and logistics.”
Total service The full-service aspect of DSV Road provides short delivery times for groupage, part and full loads and all manner of special transports.
In cooperation with its partner divisions DSV Air & Sea and DSV Solutions, the company offers comprehensive multi-modal transport and logistics solutions across the world. Its service incorporates all aspects of logistics from forwarding, packing, sorting and labelling to stock management, with all services being developed and honed to ensure the best possible results for the customer. According to the spokesperson, “It’s all about designing solutions to fit the individual needs of our customers, particularly as so many customers are active globally. For each and every customer we make sure that our forwarding and freight service is perfectly in
