Sarens in Poland Triumphs with Two Prestigious Awards at Konkurs Giganci Transportu 2024

Sarens in Poland, also know as Sarens Polska, achieved remarkable recognition at the Konkurs Giganci Transportu 2024 awards ceremony. Held on June 7th at the prestigious Hotel Warszawianka in Jachranka, the event celebrated excellence in the transport industry. Sarens Polska was honoured with two awards in the following categories: Oversize Transport with Load Weight Over 120Tand Crane Service with Load Weight Over 250T.

Oversize Transport with Load Weight Over 120T

Sarens Polska’s first accolade was for their exceptional transport of the decommissioned Polish submarine, ORP Sokół. This massive undertaking involved moving the 380-ton submarine, which measures 45 meters in length, 8 meters in width, and 5 meters in height, from the port of Gdynia to the Polish Navy Museum. The challenging task was executed using 32 axle Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs).

Navigating the narrow spaces of the Bulwar Nadmorski in Gdynia, the Sarens team demonstrated exceptional skill and precision. The route, which posed numerous logistical challenges, was meticulously planned and executed, ensuring the safe and successful delivery of the submarine to its new home. This project not only showcased Sarens Polska’s technical expertise but also our ability to manage complex operations under demanding conditions.

Crane Service with Load Weight Over 250T

The second award recognised Sarens Polska’s prowess in heavy lifting. The project involved the lift and preparation for installation of a Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) cutter head. Weighing an impressive 450 tons and boasting a diameter of 14 meters, the cutter head presented a formidable challenge.

Our Sarens Polska’s team utilised their advanced crane capabilities to manoeuvre the massive cutter head with precision and efficiency. This complex operation highlighted the company’s commitment to safety and excellence, reinforcing Sarens’s reputation as industry leaders in heavy lifting and transport services.

A Night to Remember

The awards ceremony, organised by Ogólnopolskie Stowarzyszenie Pracodawców Transportu Nienormatywnego (OSPTN), also known as Ponadnormatywni.pl, was a significant event for the industry. The gala was graced by the presence of notable figures, including Ms. Iffet Turken, President of the Transport Section in ESTA Europe, underscoring the event’s importance on an international scale.

The evening was co-hosted by our very own Logistics Managers, Jakub Wroblewski, and Joanna Salamon from PKS Cargo, making the event not just a celebration of achievements but also a gathering of the industry’s finest minds and talents.

Sarens Polska’s dual victories at the Konkurs Giganci Transportu 2024 are a testament to our dedication, expertise, and innovation in the field of heavy transport and lifting. These awards reflect Sarens’ commitment globally to overcoming challenges and setting new standards of excellence in the industry.
