Quality

With us there is only one quality - the best!

The satisfaction of our customers determines our success. That is why we continuously train our employees on quality, risk and safety. We count not only on the use of modern technologies, but also on the ongoing optimization of our internal processes. These activities are sustainably and transparently supported by our documented quality management system according to ISO 9001. For core and transport-specific elements, Lamprecht Transport Ltd. Basel and the logistics center Pratteln are audited according to SQAS and implement HACCP. We are also certified according to the very stringent conditions in accordance with the Swiss BIO regulation for the storage of biological products.

Safety first

security

Security and duty of care a cornerstone of our success

Your transports will surely reach their destination safely. With selected basic training in the fields of security and safety (freight security as per FOCA guidelines, hazardous materials transportation, combating terrorism, securing loads, etc.) our employees are well trained and regularly refreshed.

We do everything for the safety of your goods.

A milestone in regard to security has been certification as an Authorised Economic Operator (AEO). This certification demands extensive precautionary measures in terms of reliability, solvency and compliance with high safety standards as well as strict compliance with relevant legislation. 

Enterprises that possess an AEO certificate benefit in connected customs areas from simplifications in security-relevant customs controls and simplified procedures. This, above all, is for the benefit of customers of Lamprecht Transport Ltd.

Environment and transport

environment

We contribute to caring for Mother Nature – Lamprecht Transport Ltd.

Eco-friendly transportation and storage has always been a real concern for Lamprecht Transport Ltd. Accordingly, our freight forwarding professionals make every effort to process each and every transport as environmentally-friendly as possible. These measures include the highest possible exploitation of means of transport, the avoidance of empty runs and the optimisation of transport routes through to the segregated disposal of packaging materials.

We utilise, whenever possible, ecological means of transport such as combined transport (rail/road) and Rhine barges as well as resource-friendly paper-free solutions (e-freight and customs clearance).

In this way our thought-through planning and friction-free execution of your assignment pay off in the long term for everyone. We’ll stay on the ball and act sustainably.
