Heavy Loads, Smooth Roads, Powerful Deliveries

Aerospace

The rapid expansion of Wallenborn’s Outsize & Aerospace cargo business has been supported by a multi-million Euros investment in our specialist fleet for such complex movements.
Transporting an aircraft engine or essential aircraft components goes beyond mere logistics – it requires precision, expertise and trust – each and every time.
Our dedicated team of industry professionals guarantee that every aspect of the logistics chain is managed with utmost care and ensuring that airlines around the globe are prepared for take-off 24/7 – 365 days a year.
Wallenborn has one of Europe`s largest fleet of aircraft engine carriers (including powered roller bed trailers / ultra low loaders) enabling swift and seamless transport of any civil aircraft engine from CF34 up to GEnx-1B/2B and Rolls Royce Trent series all across Europe, the U.K. Turkey and North Africa.

Meticulous and Professional

Rest assured, Aero Engines are in safe hands with Wallenborn’s experts. One of the key reasons for our significant investment in XXL trailers is that the latest generation of engines for aircraft such as the Airbus A330 NEO (powered by the Trent 7000 engine), A350 or A380 and Boeing’s B747-8, B777 and B787 are larger and necessitate meticulous and professional handling. This is particularly crucial when securing engine cradles with chains or straps to the trailer. Wallenborn has established its own “Engine Handling Procedures” tailored for each engine type and also maintains a record of all shipments through the “Engine Check Lists”.

Specialised Training Programme

Wallenborn understands the need for continuous improvement in aerospace market. We update our procedures and trainings on regular basis.

With this in mind, Wallenborn developed an in-house training program specifically designed for aircraft engine loading, securing and transporting. This training is provided to a carefully selected group of staff that deal with this type of outsized transportation. Members include key office staff, pre-loaders, and our hand-picked driver crew that make up the outsized and aerospace team.

This training program is a part of the business model for Wallenborn’s outsize & aerospace division, is incorporated in our overarching quality management policy, and is currently managed out of our headquarters in Munsbach, Luxembourg.
