Right at the Polish-German border, near the A4 and DK94, the Hegelmann Hub has been established. Located in Żarska Wieś near Zgorzelec, this investment is more than just a base for trucks. It’s a comprehensive truck complex offering a wide range of services that meet all the needs of professional drivers and the transport companies they represent.

All services at one place

On the road, a driver needs parking, solid rest, and good food. Those are basic needs. Hegelmann Hub is not just a spacious TIR parking, but also offers comfortable accommodation, delicious food at the restaurant, as well as a modern workshop and tachograph service (provided by Tacho24).

The HT Trucks & Parts workshop, covering an area of 13 000 m², also includes a Regional Vehicle Inspection Station, a paint shop, and bodywork services for all types of trucks and trailers. The team of experienced mechanics ensures high-quality implementation of all repairs, inspections, diagnostics, and vehicle maintenance.

The paint shop located here is adapted for painting long vehicles, with the capability to handle elements up to 40 meters long. This modern auto port also offers a modern car wash capable of thoroughly cleaning both the exterior and interior parts of vehicles.

A home on the road comes with responsibilities

The Hegelmann Hub has spacious, monitored, and guarded parking lots that can accommodate 850 trucks. Over 750 sleeping places are waiting for drivers at the Training and Accommodation Centre, along with access to kitchens, professional gyms, and luggage storage. This centre also includes laundries and kitchens for self-catering. There is also an option to dine at the restaurant.

„We are prepared and open to receive all types of tractors and trailers. What was crucial in the design of the complex is that during equipment servicing, the driver can properly rest and rejuvenate before continuing his/her journey. Such an approach, focusing on proper service for our clients and the strategic location near the Polish-German border, encourages more and more companies and drivers to take a break at our base,” explains Adrian Koziorowski, Head of Branch, HT Trucks & Parts, managing the Hegelmann Hub complex.

Recently, Hegelmann joined the „Direction: Respect” project by the Truckers Life Foundation, aimed at improving working conditions for drivers. Besides verifying the quality of loading sites, it is also an educational platform for the entire TSL sector. It supports a culture of mutual respect and understanding among all participants in the supply chain. The Hegelmann Hub has been marked as a truck driver-friendly location.

• Šalies pietvakariuose, netoli sienos, statomas naujas centras
• Logistikos įmonė reaguoja į mobilumo paketų reikalavimus
• Išsami transporto priemonių ir vairuotojų aptarnavimo zona

Bruchsal/Żarska Wieś (Lenkija), 2021 m. liepos 16 d. – „Hegelmann Group” stato pirmąjį Lenkijoje sunkvežimių vairuotojų centrą. Unikalus šalyje projektas statomas Žarska Višo mieste (Żarska Wieś), Lenkijos pietvakariuose, netoli Vokietijos sienos, kiek mažesniame nei dvylikos hektarų plote. Be išsamių paslaugų ekspeditoriams ir transporto priemonėms, operacijų centre taip pat yra nuosavas viešbutis ir didelė automobilių stovėjimo aikštelė. Tai taip pat yra tarptautinės transporto ir logistikos bendrovės atsakas į padidėjusius reikalavimus, kylančius dėl naujų ES reglamentų ir mobilumo paketo. Iki šiol investicijos siekė apie 22 mln. eurų. Planuojama, kad kompleksas, kuris bus nuosekliai plečiamas, bus atidarytas 2022 m. viduryje. „Įrengdami šį centrą kuriame optimalų paslaugų kompleksą, pritaikytą mūsų vairuotojų ir darbuotojų poreikiams. Be to, juo padedame mažesnėms krovinių vežimo įmonėms įgyvendinti mobilumo paketo reikalavimus, – sako „Hegelmann Group” akcininkas Siegfriedas Hegelmannas. Hegelmann yra pirmoji transporto ir logistikos pramonės įmonė, Lenkijoje įkūrusi integruotą operacijų centrą. Teritorija suskirstyta į kelias zonas: Maždaug 7 000 kvadratinių metrų ploto sunkvežimių aptarnavimo zonoje yra dirbtuvės, diagnostikos punktas, dažymo cechas ir sunkvežimių plovykla. Be to, yra beveik 6 000 kv. m atsarginių dalių ir padangų sandėlis. „Visas paslaugų spektras leidžia mums optimizuoti remonto laiką ir užtikrinti efektyvią veiklą”, – sako Hegelmannas. Ateityje čia planuojama pastatyti dar vieną atskirą logistikos kompleksą ir sandėliavimo centrą. Be nuosavų biuro patalpų, didžiuliame sklype yra dar apie 60 biurų išorės įmonėms. Išplėstoje bazėje taip pat yra viešbutis su daugiau kaip 750 lovų. Iš Europos maršrutų grįžtantys vairuotojai čia galės praleisti privalomą poilsio laiką. Dar vienas „Hegelmann” centro privalumas – atskiros aukštos kokybės komercinės patalpos, skirtos verslo partneriams, ekspeditoriams ir kitoms transporto įmonėms. Aplink biurus, viešbutį, aptarnavimo zonas ir sandėlius esančiose erdviose automobilių stovėjimo aikštelėse taip pat telpa 220 sunkvežimių ir 450 lengvųjų automobilių. „Hegelmann Hub” Lenkijoje – tai transporto bazė, kuri daugeliu atžvilgių pritaikyta optimaliam darbui”, – sako Hegelmann. 2022 m. viduryje atidarytas „Hegelmann Hub” Lenkijoje taip pat turės teigiamą poveikį regionui. Tikimasi, kad pačiame operacijų centre dirbs apie 200 žmonių. Kitas darbo vietas sukurs mūsų verslo partneriai ir kitos įmonės, – sako Hegelmannas.
