Logistics concept Sappi
Sappi Gratkorn produces 980,000 tons of high-quality double and triple coated paper annually, which is used worldwide. It is one of the most modern production facilities for coated fine paper and is located north of Graz.
The entire delivery of the required raw materials and the export of the produced goods is carried out via access gates on the southern side of the Mura River by means of trucks and the shunting of wagons.
The logistics concept examines, based on considerations about an expansion of production, the traffic situation outside and inside the plant.
Based on provided delivery data, the average traffic of one day could be converted to the created traffic network of the plant. Video surveys were used to collect data on internal traffic at key intersections and to estimate the capacity utilization.
Traffic counts were conducted in the vicinity of the plant to ensure performance on the surrounding road network in the event of a possible increase in plant traffic.
