The launch comes just twelve months after Damco established its first block train on the same route, a testimony that the customer demand for rail services to transport their cargo is on the rise.
The Hague, The Netherlands, Oct 24 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Damco’s growth in the rail sector further contributes to A.P. Moller - Maersk’s goal to expand in the non-ocean segment and connect and simplify supply chains. Damco’s block train service offers a fast, cost-effective, flexible and reliable way to transport cargo from China into Europe. Block trains are customer-dedicated rail transport services that transport goods from origin to destination without splitting them up en route. This not only helps simplify customers’ supply chains, but together with Damco’s “no-rolling” policy where the container is directly loaded from the warehouse onto the train, brings further reliability to the service by providing a faster and more flexible service. Kasper Krog, Head of Rail at Damco commented, “The continued rail growth is evident in the increased China-to-Europe freight train capacity of 69% the China Railway Corporation recorded for the first half of 2018. However, we also see continued rail growth due to the competitive advantages the service provides for our customers who demand speed, reliability and sustainability.” He continued, “We have cleared the clutter, complexity and disruption that add time and costs to our customers’ supply chains and created a reliable, weekly end-to-end service that can also be incorporated as part of a multi modal solution where two or more different modes of transport are being used.” The Damco block train solution leverages the experience within the A.P. Moller-Maersk organization to ensure that the customers benefit from a wider range of options to transport their goods whether via ocean, air or rail. “Our target is to continue the expansion of the rail and intermodal footprint, in close corporation with our customers and to play an active role in helping to keep their business on track” says Krog. The block train is able to cover the ca. 11,000 km journey from China to Europe in 18-20 days thanks to the prioritizations that rail operators are able to grant the train throughout its route. By using the latest technologies, customers are also given visibility of their goods during the transportation. This service makes it easy for the customer to place a booking with a dedicated specialist team who handle the cargo all the way to its final destination. Furthermore, with carbon emissions comparatively lower than those for air, the block train service offers a more environmentally conscious option for the transport of goods. Caroline Wu, Area Manager for Greater China at Damco added: “Approximately 4.3% of cargo between China and Northern Europe is moved via rail. So, although it is still a relatively small contributor to global trade, it is a service which is poised for growth.” Caroline continues, “Due to the government’s support and efforts made in developing the Belt and Road Initiative, we are now seeing great opportunities and strong interest from our customers in using our rail services.” For more information on Damco’s rail service as well as customer case studies please visit: www.damco.com/DamcoRail About Damco Damco is at the forefront of developing innovative supply chain solutions.

As the Paris Fashion Week just came to a close, a Sino-French fashion talk on Oriental Beauty took place in Xinhua Gallery Media France. In this event, professionals in the fashion circle from both countries discussed the fashion aesthetics of the East and West, and explored the trend of skincare and makeup in the world. Also, the Beautrio 2019 Oriental Makeup Looks were released. As another example to enhance the cooperation between China and France, Beautrio, an Infinitus upmarket skincare brand featuring Chinese herbs, has partnered with top research institutions and established the CNRS - Paris Diderot University Beautrio International Collaboration Skincare Research Centre. Beautrio works with the French National Centre for Scientific Research (Centre national de la recherche scientifique, CNRS) to discover the anti-aging and moisturising effects of the Chinese herbs. Beautrio has also teamed up with Ashland, a Fortune 500 chemical R&D company in Sophia Antipolis, the acclaimed technology park in France, in pursuit of the premium raw materials. "Beautrio carries forward the time-honoured oriental skincare wisdom and integrates western technologies with traditional Chinese herbs." Infinitus Promotion Director Wang Jian stressed that, "We strive to improve our product quality and safety and work right from the source of our products.

Best has downgraded the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) to B (fair) from B++ (good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating (Long-Term ICR) to ‘bb+’ from ‘bbb’ of United India Insurance Co. Ltd. (United) India.
A.M. Best said in a statement, the outlook of the FSR has been revised to stable from negative, while the outlook of the Long-Term ICR remains negative. The downgraded rating reflect United’s diminished risk-adjusted capitalization and its marginal enterprise risk management (ERM) while the negative Long-Term ICR outlook reflects the downside risks to United’s risk-adjusted capitalization and operating performance. United’s capital position has decreased to a lower-than-expected level of INR 90 billion (US$1.4 billion) as of March 2018 (compared with INR 95 billion in the prior year). However, the non-renewal of quota-share reinsurance for health and motor third-party business, as well as continued underwriting losses are expected to further reduce United’s capital position and risk-adjusted capitalization. In addition, the rising equity investment leverage is leaving the company’s risk-adjusted capitalization more vulnerable to equity market fluctuations. The marginal ERM assessment reflects United’s inadequate capability to manage its reserves, as continued adverse developments have contributed to United’s capital erosion. The rating agency also concerned about United’s ability to respond to challenges in India’s fast-growing non-life market in a timely and effective manner.

Xianju is a relatively remote mountainous area in eastern China. Today, the local residents can be rewarded for their green lifestyle. Residents who choose to walk, ride public bicycles, or travel by bus can get a certain amount of "green coins", which can be used for consumption, living expenses, charitable donations, etc. One "green coin" is equivalent to 1 RMB. This kind of healthy and environmentally friendly lifestyle can be seen everywhere in Xianju. Not only that, the current industrial development of Xianju is closely related to the green industry. The forest coverage rate of Xianju County is 79.6%. The place where Tianmu Mountain in the famous Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai's "Tianmu Mountain Ascended in a Drea" is located in Xianju, and is regarded as "the place where immortals live." For a long time, Xianju has an excellent ecological environment, but from the perspective of economic development, Xianju is not a developed county in Zhejiang Province. Still, Zhejiang has chosen it as the only county-level green development reform pilot county in the province. Through the joint participation of the government, enterprises and the public, it has explored a "beautiful China" county model with sustainable development, well-to-do life and sound ecosystem for China. mrem.bernama.com/viewsm.php?idm=32961 |
