Nu börjar NTEX, ett av Sveriges största privatägda transport- och logistikbolag, investera i fossilfria fordon. Först ut är en helt eldriven lastbil från Volvo Lastvagnar som kommer att användas för distribution i göteborgsregionen. Satsningen beräknas minska koldioxidutsläppen under körning med omkring 19,6 ton per år.

Since 2015, NTEX UK has handled and shipped road marking glass beads from Scotland to Sweden and Norway. What started with 30-40 loads per year has developed into 178 loads, so far this year.

NTEX offers a unique logistics service called Carpet Logistics. Focused on carpets, Sweden and Norway are serviced with carpet transports from both the Netherlands and Belgium. In September, seven new box trailers were put into use, completely adapted for Carpet Logistics with better performance and increased safety for the drivers.

In April, Fraktkompaniet established a new distribution facility with domestic service and warehouses in Gislaved in Småland. The facility is shared with the parent company NTEX who in Gislaved has taken over some traffic from Borås and now handles traffic to and from Norway, Finland, the Baltics and Central Europe.

NTEX UK has developed its existing services, and now offers new full-service services for its customers to the southern European market.

It is now official that NTEX acquires Gothenburg-based JEK Forwarding AB, a transport company focusing on sea and air freight. This is NTEX seventh company acquisition in two years and it means that NTEX, through acquisitions and organic growth, will have a turnover of SEK 2.4-2.5 billion in 2020. This will make NTEX the largest private freight forwarder in Sweden.

The two Gothenburg-based transport and logistics companies becomes one when NTEX acquires Fraktkompaniet. Both companies are among the most expansive in the Swedish industry and the merger enables an even greater growth rate. Through the acquisition, NTEX increases its turnover by approximately 360 million SEK and welcomes 100 new employees. Fraktkompaniet will be run as an independent subsidiary under the direction of CEO Anette Yngvesson.

Reliability and quality - two cornerstones in the long-standing collaboration between Ecophon and NTEX. A collaboration that began in Sweden but today also includes transports outside the country's borders.
