Bulk Transshipment Slovakia (BTS), established in 2007, operates transhipment facilities at the Čierna nad Tisou border crossing station on Slovakia’s eastern border. The company is a joint venture between Budamar Logistics and Železničná spoločnosť Cargo Slovakia.
BTS specializes in the transhipment, loading, unloading, and transferring of various commodities. It uses transhipment centres equipped with integrated rotary tipplers and fully automated technology. During winter, they offer defrosting services in two halls and provide technical humidification to prevent cargo freezing during transport.
Since 2009, the company has been a licensed rail transport operator, managing a fleet of +/- 40 electric and diesel locomotives.
