PTC Groep

STRONGER TOGETHER

We are the PTC Groep. The world is constantly changing, and we move with it, always keeping the interests of our customers and our members in mind. PTC Groep is the future-proof answer for shipowners and, at the same time is a reliable partner for charterers on the domestic and international market. We specialize in chartering inland vessels, together with our clients.

The PTC Groep originated from PTC b.a (Particuliere Transport Coöperatie), a cooperative of inland shipping entrepreneurs who together handle waterborne transport for customers. Our motto is “Stronger Together,” and our strength in unity is evident from the fact that we’ve been offering our transport services collectively with our members for more than thirty years

Thanks to close collaboration, we can deploy our fleet in the most efficient way. This results in optimal use of vessel capacity, lower operational costs, and higher customer satisfaction. In addition, we have specialized experience with specific cargo types, such as steel coils transported on Connected Coil Carriers.

“Why PTC? To take the charterer out of the equation or, to put it another way, for shipowners to be more like their own boss.”
