As supply chains across Asia and the globe continue to realign, transport logistic Shanghai 2026 took center stage to champion the industry’s shift toward resilience, security, and multi-layered network collaboration.

Bringing together key regional and international logistics players, transport logistic & air cargo Shanghai 2026concluded to resounding success on June 24 to 26 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC).

As Asia’s premier trade fair for logistics, mobility, IT, and supply chain management, the 2026 edition shattered previous milestones across all performance indicators. Spanning over 52,000 square meters, the event hosted 939 exhibitors from 57 countries and regions – an 18% increase over the previous edition (vs. 2024: 794), and attracted 47,031 trade visitors from 121 countries and regions (up more than 30% vs. 2024: 36,000). These new records reinforce the event’s growing international appeal and solidify China’s standing as one of the world’s most dynamic logistics hubs.

“We are proud that transport logistic & air cargo Shanghai 2026 has served as a masterclass in seamless multimodal integration,” noted Dr. Robert Schönberger, Global Industry Lead transport logistic exhibitions at Messe München, “On the show floor, we didn’t just display products; we showcased mature, end-to-end solutions that stitch together air, rail, maritime, and road networks. This is exactly how we turn ideas into action—by empowering international and regional players to build the secure, resilient supply chains that modern global trade demands.”

Mr. Evan Sha, President China & Chief Executive Officer of Messe Muenchen Shanghai Co., Ltd. further commented: “Leveraging multimodal resources, advanced technology, and global networks, transport logistic & air cargo Shanghai 2026 goes beyond scale to deliver real value, quality growth, and industry upgrading.”

Global participation reached a new high in 2026, with international exhibitors accounting for approximately 33% of the total lineup. The exhibition welcomed 47,031visitors from key trade markets worldwide, including Russia, Kazakhstan, South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Germany, India, Saudi Araba, Malaysia and many others.

Underscoring this global reach was the presence of six national and international association pavilions representing Germany, Singapore, Slovenia, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia (represented by NIDLP), and the International Tank Container Organization (ITCO). Their high-profile participation not only signaled international confidence in the Chinese and broader Asian markets, but also showcased their innovations in multimodal transport, cross-border logistics, digital supply chains, and smart logistics technologies.

“It is most important for us to get closer to the Asian market”, mentioned Christin Grewe, Manager in Customer Events & Marketing of FIEGE, “transport logistic Shanghai offers us a great platform to meet new customers.” Ronald Schwarze, Head of Marketing of bremenports also shared: “We can learn about the market by listening to what our customers are saying”. Alexander Rudenko, Director of Far Eastern Regional Centre of FESCO Transportation Group also expressed his satisfaction: “We discussed some challenges together with customers which can be a good base for further relationship development.”

Fueled by the exponential rise of cross-border e-commerce, high-value manufacturing, and time-sensitive logistics, air cargo Shanghai 2026 delivered its largest footprint to date. The show expanded to 15,000 square meters—a staggering 150% increase compared to the previous edition—necessitating the use of two exhibition halls. International players accounted for nearly half of the exhibitor lineup, highlighting the critical role of Asia-Pacific networks in global aviation logistics.

Amid intense demand for stable, disruption-proof intercontinental supply chains, rail logistics stood out as one of the fastest-growing segments of the 2026 event. Led by China Railway Container Transport, this dedicated area for rail transport expanded to an impressive 6,000 square meters.

Dmitrij Hasenkampf, General Manager Sales & Business Development of RTSB highlighted: “The exhibition grows year by year. We are always glad to be here to meet decision makers from all industries in one place.” Gelb Shilov, Director Sales Block Train of DB Cargo Transasia also underlined: “We always use this platform to discuss our current and future projects.”

The area successfully brought together leading domestic inland port platforms and top-tier international rail operators. This high-profile showcase vividly illustrated the strategic value of the China-Europe Railway Express in diversifying supply chain routes, stabilizing Eurasian trade links, and paving the way for cost-efficient, green logistics corridors.

The dedicated Road Transport Zone and the Logistics Digitalization & Intelligent Innovation Zone put a spotlight on tech-driven empowerment and the industry’s green transition. Aligned with national strategies for low-carbon development, these zones brought together an elite lineup of postal and e-commerce logistics giants, autonomous driving pioneers, cutting-edge tech scale-ups, and premier commercial vehicle manufacturers.

Datifex signs Managed Service Agreement with the HPA

Datifex, a 2026 NATO DIANA Innovator cohort member, has signed a Managed Service Agreement with the Halifax Port Authority (HPA) to bring OneHarbour™ to Port Halifax.

The Operations Centre (OPCEN) at the HPA runs one of Canada’s busiest harbours around the clock, juggling vessel traffic, berth scheduling, environmental conditions, and safety events across many systems. OneHarbour cuts through that complexity — built on Datifex’s DATIVerse 3D™, it unifies the harbour’s operational picture into a single browser-based interactive 3D environment, accessible from anywhere and on any device, in real time.

Beyond supporting commercial operations, OneHarbour delivers automated alerts for potential vessel collisions, unauthorized movements, restricted-zone incursions, High Air Draft Vessel (HADV) bridge clearance risks, and hazardous weather. It also integrates data from Automatic Identification System (AIS) transponders, computer vision, and radar into unified vessel tracks, improving detection of smaller vessels without AIS and helping close a longstanding gap in maritime situational awareness.

As a member of the Port of Halifax’s living lab, The PIER, Datifex was able to test OneHarbour’s capabilities at the HPA in an operating port environment, working directly with HPA and leading to the adoption of the technology.

Backed by NATO DIANA, Datifex is fast-tracking OneHarbour for conflict-affected harbours beyond Canada. The company is proving that capability at the Digital Ocean Lab, Fraunhofer IGD in Rostock, Germany — a strategic Baltic hub where maritime awareness is an urgent NATO priority. Fuelled by live Baltic sensor feeds — including AIS, radar, subsea sensors, and computer vision — and enhanced with low-compute SLM AI, the trial is demonstrating OneHarbour’s ability to deliver real-time, mission-critical awareness. The program will conclude with a demonstration for the German Navy and Baltic Maritime Command (MARCOM), underscoring the platform’s value for defence and maritime security operations in the Baltic theatre.

The announcement comes as the H2O: Home to Overseas Conference took place in Halifax. Corey Kirkhus, Director of Business Development and Product at Datifex, Corey Gleason, Deputy Harbour Master and Director of ITS at the Halifax Port Authority, and Kristjan Kask, Client Systems Administrator at Cybernetica, joined the conference’s Marine Domain Awareness main stage panel, moderated by Christine Hanson, Regional Director, North America, NATO DIANA.

“This agreement with the Halifax Port Authority (HPA) is a major milestone for Datifex and OneHarbour. HPA has played a critical role shaping the platform in a real-world operating environment. We are especially grateful to Deputy Harbour Master, Cdr ret’d Corey Gleason, whose partnership and leadership have been instrumental to OneHarbour’s development and its future across commercial and defence applications.” Chris Erickson, CEO, Datifex.

“OneHarbour has given our OPCEN a level of situational awareness that wasn’t possible before — and the capabilities it brings to harbour management are insightful, timely and accurate. This Agreement is an example of how The PIER and its members contribute to strengthening supply chain efficiency — by testing, demonstrating and adopting technologies in the Port of Halifax.” David Thomas, Executive Director, The PIER at the Halifax Port Authority‍.

Beyond supporting commercial operations, OneHarbour delivers automated alerts for potential vessel collisions, unauthorized movements, restricted-zone incursions, High Air Draft Vessel (HADV) bridge clearance risks, and hazardous weather. It also integrates data from Automatic Identification System (AIS) transponders, computer vision, and radar into unified vessel tracks, improving detection of smaller vessels without AIS and helping close a longstanding gap in maritime situational awareness.

As a member of the Port of Halifax’s living lab, The PIER, Datifex was able to test OneHarbour’s capabilities at the HPA in an operating port environment, working directly with HPA and leading to the adoption of the technology.

Backed by NATO DIANA, Datifex is fast-tracking OneHarbour for conflict-affected harbours beyond Canada. The company is proving that capability at the Digital Ocean Lab, Fraunhofer IGD in Rostock, Germany — a strategic Baltic hub where maritime awareness is an urgent NATO priority. Fuelled by live Baltic sensor feeds — including AIS, radar, subsea sensors, and computer vision — and enhanced with low-compute SLM AI, the trial is demonstrating OneHarbour’s ability to deliver real-time, mission-critical awareness. The program will conclude with a demonstration for the German Navy and Baltic Maritime Command (MARCOM), underscoring the platform’s value for defence and maritime security operations in the Baltic theatre.

The announcement comes as the H2O: Home to Overseas Conference took place in Halifax. Corey Kirkhus, Director of Business Development and Product at Datifex, Corey Gleason, Deputy Harbour Master and Director of ITS at the Halifax Port Authority, and Kristjan Kask, Client Systems Administrator at Cybernetica, joined the conference’s Marine Domain Awareness main stage panel, moderated by Christine Hanson, Regional Director, North America, NATO DIANA.

“This agreement with the Halifax Port Authority (HPA) is a major milestone for Datifex and OneHarbour. HPA has played a critical role shaping the platform in a real-world operating environment. We are especially grateful to Deputy Harbour Master, Cdr ret’d Corey Gleason, whose partnership and leadership have been instrumental to OneHarbour’s development and its future across commercial and defence applications.” Chris Erickson, CEO, Datifex.

“OneHarbour has given our OPCEN a level of situational awareness that wasn’t possible before — and the capabilities it brings to harbour management are insightful, timely and accurate. This Agreement is an example of how The PIER and its members contribute to strengthening supply chain efficiency — by testing, demonstrating and adopting technologies in the Port of Halifax.” David Thomas, Executive Director, The PIER at the Halifax Port Authority‍.

Brigade to demonstrate its latest safety solutions at Breakbulk Europe 2026

0

The team from Brigade Electronics will be demonstrating its latest enhanced visibility and vehicle safety solutions for seaport operations at Breakbulk Europe 2026, taking place at Rotterdam between 16th and 18th June.

Visitors to Hall 8, Stand 2R23 will discover how Brigade helps operators achieve complete visibility around vehicles and equipment operating in busy port environments.

Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, Brigade works closely with customers to understand their operation, identify blind spots and assess the risks unique to their site. Drawing on nearly five decades of vehicle safety expertise, the team designs tailored solutions that combine the right technologies to improve visibility, protect people and support safer, more efficient operations.

Whether the challenge involves terminal tractors, reach stackers, straddle carriers or container handling equipment, Brigade’s focus is the same – understanding how the vehicle operates, where visibility is limited and how technology can help drivers stay aware of their surroundings.

Featured on the stand will be Brigade’s Backeye®360 AI system with human form recognition, which combines a complete 360-degree vehicle view with intelligent pedestrian detection. Brigade’s AI camera range and radar object detection systems will also be demonstrated, showing how multiple technologies can work together to provide a comprehensive visibility solution around the vehicle.

Ports operate around the clock, often in challenging conditions where vehicles, cargo and people are constantly on the move. Brigade’s solutions help operators maintain awareness, improve safety and keep operations running efficiently.

Brigade’s vehicle safety solutions are designed to meet and exceed global safety standards and are supported by decades of expertise in commercial vehicle and industrial safety technology.

Guillaume Amigues, Regional Director at Brigade, said: “Every port operates differently, which is why we do not believe in offering the same product to every customer. We start by understanding the environment, the vehicles and the visibility challenges operators face every day.

Our role is to identify blind spots, assess the risks and recommend the right combination of technologies to improve awareness around the vehicle. At Breakbulk Europe, we’re looking forward to showing visitors how our expertise helps create safer, more productive port operations through total visibility.”

Brigade will be exhibiting at Breakbulk Europe 2026 at Rotterdam Ahoy from 16th to 18th June. Visit the team in Hall 8, Stand 2R23 to discover the latest innovations in seaport vehicle safety.

Brigade is a global market leader and award-winning provider of commercial and machinery vehicle safety solutions. The company’s mission is to save lives, protect vulnerable road users and assist drivers to maneuver safely by creating high-quality products that reduce the risk of collisions and eliminate vehicle blind spots.

Founded in 1976 by Chris Hanson-Abbott OBE, Brigade introduced the very first back up alarm to Europe and has been at the forefront of championing vehicle and machinery safety ever since. The company is renowned for pioneering industry-compliant products as well as developing and patenting new and innovative technology.

Brigade’s product portfolio offers a range of devices suitable for OEM and aftermarket customers. These include the latest AI-enhanced 360-degree camera systems, camera monitor systems, White Sound® back up alarms, radar and ultrasonic sensors, enhanced with AI capabilities, as well as video recording devices and dashcams which are compatible with various telematics platforms, including Brigade Telematics. Brigade’s products can be integrated to suit a broad range of applications and requirements. All devices come with generous warranty periods (some lifetime), technical support and expert aftercare.

Nooteboom adds to EURO PX3 product range

0

Nooteboom further expands the successful EURO PX3 product range with the introduction of a new combination: a 2-axle Interdolly coupled with a 4-axle EURO PX3 low loader.

This latest configuration within the third generation of EURO PX low loaders responds perfectly to the growing demand for higher payloads and maximum deployment flexibility in special transport.

Since the introduction of the EURO PX3 at BAUMA in Munich in April 2025, where the 3-axle version was presented, there has been a gradual expansion of the program. Following the addition of the 2-axle variant at the end of 2025, this 4-axle version in combination with a 2-axle Interdolly marks a further step in optimizing capacity and flexibility.

The new 2+4 EURO PX3 offers more than 1,000 kg additional payload compared to the previous generation, without compromising robustness, quality, or ease of operation. This enables transport operators to move even heavier loads efficiently and reliably.

The 2-axle Interdolly is fully interchangeable with both previous EURO low loader generations and the latest EURO PX3 models. This allows existing fleets to remain flexible and multi-deployable, directly contributing to a lower total cost of ownership.

Thanks to the advanced steering system and optimised vehicle configuration, the 2+4 EURO PX3 better meets the requirements for exceptional transport. In practice, this means that transport operators can obtain long-term permits easier (instead of single use) for longer vehicle combinations. In addition, the use of a second driver is less often required. The driver also has extra steering angle available via manual control for maneuvering in tight situations.

Like all models in the EURO PX3 series, this new 2+4 configuration benefits from the latest technological developments. Key advantages include: Increased payload capacity for heavier loads; Wider U-Trough for additional space and flexibility; More loading space for optimal efficiency; Large steering angle for superior maneuverability; Optimised steering system for minimal tire wear and favorable permits; Lightweight yet robust chassis for maximum reliability; New design featuring the latest technical innovations; Reduced maintenance for cost-effective operation.

These features make the EURO PX3 one of the most advanced low loaders in the industry, designed to handle the toughest transport challenges with precision and reliability.

Balena Projects have successfully completed another complex project cargo movement of an oversized self-propelled unit from Canada to the USA for shipping to Brazil.

The cargo was professionally handled throughout the project, from loading at the shipper’s facility in Canada to loading onboard the vessel at the US port of export. Their scope included inland transportation from Canada to the USA, arrangement of customs bonds, and securing all required oversized permits.

In line with the customer’s requirements, a detailed site survey was conducted prior to the shipment. The surveyor inspected the cargo condition, storage environment, and loading operations during pickup to ensure full compliance and safe handling throughout the process.

The entire movement was carefully planned and executed by Balena Projects, with close coordination across inland transport, port operations, and vessel handling. Every stage was managed with precise attention to timing, documentation, and operational requirements, ensuring the cargo was delivered safely, efficiently, and under full control from origin to export loading.

Briggs Equipment is proud to announce that an incredible £7,120 has been raised for St Giles Hospice through a series of Corporate Golf Days and networking events held at the prestigious JCB Golf and Country Club in Uttoxeter.

Thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of everyone involved, an impressive £7,000 was raised directly through the golf days. Combined with additional contributions from the wider networking events at JCB, the total fundraising amount reached £7,120.

All proceeds will go to St Giles Hospice, a charity dedicated to providing vital care and support to patients living with life-limiting illnesses, as well as offering essential services to their families. The funds raised will help ensure that the hospice can continue delivering compassionate, high-quality care to those who need it most.

Briggs Equipment extends its sincere thanks to everyone who took part, donated, and helped make the events such a success. The continued support from customers, partners, and suppliers plays a crucial role in enabling initiatives like this and making a positive difference in the community.

We look forward to building on this success in future events and continuing our commitment to supporting worthy causes like St Giles Hospice.
