Hankyu Ferry Logistics Information

Safe, reliable, and speedy maritime transport with consideration for the environment.

By utilizing ferries for intermediate transport, we can efficiently reduce transportation and labor costs.
We also focus on reducing energy consumption, CO2, and NOx emissions to protect the environment.

Time-saving and environmental improvement measures: “Modal Shift System”

Transport by land

Integrated sea and land transport

Advantages of the Modal Shift System

It leads to reduced logistics costs.

Bulk transport allows for efficient shipping, resulting in cost reductions. Additionally, it can decrease vehicle mileage, extend vehicle lifespan, and reduce repair costs, highway fees, and consumables.

We guarantee safe and comfortable transport.

The ship minimizes shocks and vibrations during transport, ensuring the cargo remains undamaged. Moreover, unlike land transport, it is unaffected by traffic jams, water and snow damage, or earthquakes, allowing for safe and timely delivery of goods. It also ensures adequate rest time for drivers and reduces accident rates.

Two daily scheduled sailings

We operate two sailings daily between Shinmoji and Kobe, and Shinmoji and Izumi-Otsu. Please refer to the sailing schedule for details.

Time-saving and environmental improvements

Compared to land transport, maritime transport has a CO2 emission rate of one-fifth and offers excellent energy efficiency, contributing to air pollution and global warming prevention while achieving energy savings and cost reductions. This system meets the transportation needs of today’s heightened focus on global environmental issues and has gained attention in recent years.
