Delivery of two tanks for Canplast SA: a turnkey project by Friderici Spécial

In April 2025, Friderici Spécial was commissioned by Canplast SA to deliver two water recovery tanks to the canton of Zurich. Our teams met this logistical challenge with rigor and expertise.

A tailor-made transport operation

The two tanks, measuring 28.6 meters long, 2.5 meters wide, and 2.9 meters high, each weighing 7.5 tons, required meticulous planning.

From the project’s inception, our sales and technical teams conducted a detailed study of the route. A major constraint was quickly identified: the last 500 meters of access to the construction site presented a real challenge due to the road layout.

A thorough field reconnaissance

To ensure delivery feasibility, our teams conducted a comprehensive on-site survey. Precise measurements, analysis of tight turns, load assessment, and route simulation enabled us to adjust the convoy’s organization.

These checks were crucial in adapting the technical configurations and ensuring safe transport to the final destination.

A project managed from A to Z

Friderici Spécial provided overall project management, offering our client a turnkey solution that included:

  • Cargo handling: selection of suitable vehicles, management of escorts, and obtaining the necessary authorizations.
  • Customs clearance: preparation of import documents in collaboration with customs authorities.
  • Technical monitoring: road reconnaissance, route selection, technical adaptations, load and turning calculations.
  • Transshipment: crane selection, routing of ancillary equipment, reservation and temporary road closures.
  • Final delivery: coordination of operations up to the secure delivery of the tanks on site.

The key to success: communication and transparency

Throughout the project, smooth and regular communication with the client ensured precise monitoring of each step. Transparency regarding cost trends and constant communication strengthened our client’s confidence in the management of this complex transport.

A successful partnership

Thanks to the expertise of our teams and everyone’s commitment, delivery was successfully completed, on time and meeting expected quality standards.
