Finnlines is expanding its North Sea service to strengthen connections across Northern and Western Europe. With the addition of the Port of Gdynia, Poland to its weekly rotation, the company enhances its network coverage and provides new opportunities for efficient, sustainable cargo transport. <\/span><\/p>\n

Starting from week 26, Finnlines will expand its North Sea network by including the Port of Gdynia, Poland in the weekly rotation. This development further strengthens Finnlines\u2019 route network and provides enhanced shipping options for customers moving cargo between key European regions.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur enhanced service features the deployment of three Finneco-class vessels. These state-of-the-art hybrid ro-ro vessels are tailored to accommodate a wide array of cargo types including ro-ro, breakbulk, container, and automotive cargo. They are particularly well-suited for special and oversized shipments, such as extra-wide or heavy units transported on weather decks or mafi trailers,\u201d says Blasco Majorana<\/strong>, Finnlines Line Manager.<\/p>\n

This route offers a cost-effective and practical intermodal alternative to the road transport for goods moving to and from Poland to Belgium, France, the UK, Spain, and Finland. Additionally, it enables to connect Poland directly to the global Grimaldi Group network, offering links to the Far East, the Middle East, Mediterranean, West Africa, South America and the East Coast of the United States.<\/p>\n

To support the service expansion, Finnlines is also introducing brand-new 80-foot mafis with embedded rails<\/strong>, specifically designed to facilitate the transportation of non-standard cargo \u2013 such as trains and wagons \u2013 with greater efficiency and flexibility.<\/p>\n

Low-carbon sea transportation <\/strong><\/p>\n

Finnlines continues to uphold its leadership in sustainable shipping. Its state-of-the-art vessels offer some of the most environmentally friendly transport solutions on the market, with up to 90% CO2 reduction available on demand. Read more about Finnlines\u2019 Green Lane solution.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThis new connection reflects our continued commitment to sustainability, operational innovation, and reliable logistics services across Europe. We are constantly improving our services to better meet customer needs and actively seeking new growth opportunities. With our modern vessels and Green Lane solution, we also provide one of the most environmentally responsible transport alternatives available,\u201d says Merja Kallio-Mannila<\/strong>, Finnlines Commercial Director.<\/p>\n

Finnlines specialises in freight transport and continues to strengthen its role as a key \u00a0maritime service provider between Finland and Continental Europe. With regular connections linking Finland, Poland, Belgium, Spain, and Ireland \u2013 and seamless integration into the extensive Grimaldi network \u2013 Finnlines enables efficient and environmentally responsible logistic solutions for businesses across Europe.<\/p>\n
