A supply chain you can’t see is a supply chain you can’t control.

With increasing pressure on timelines and performance, visibility isn’t a luxury. It’s essential.
Intermodal gives you structure. Clear routes, defined handovers, and better oversight from start to finish.

At Newell & Wright Group, we make sure your containers don’t just move. You know exactly how they’re moving.
Because control leads to better decisions, and better decisions keep everything running smoothly.

Fleet update at Newell & Wright 👇
This time we’ve brought Volvo Trucks and Scania back into the mix.

It’s been a few years since we last ran either, so it’ll be interesting to see how they perform day to day, especially on fuel and with the drivers.

Early signs are promising. Solid spec, comfortable cabs, and everything you’d expect from two of the biggest names in the game.

Big thanks to Crossroads Truck & Bus Ltd and Scania Sheffield for getting these turned around and on the road.

We’ll share a proper update once they’ve had a few miles under them.

Scaling sustainably. Scaling smarter.

Earth Day 2026 is a reminder that the future of logistics isn’t just about moving more, it’s about moving better.

At Newell & Wright Group, we’re seeing the impact of intermodal growth first hand. By combining the efficiency of rail with the flexibility of our HGV fleet, we help businesses reduce emissions while keeping goods moving at pace.

It’s not a compromise between performance and sustainability. It’s a smarter way to do both.
If you’re looking to move more efficiently in 2026, intermodal could be the answer 🌍🚆🚛

Rising costs aren’t going anywhere.

Fuel, congestion, driver availability. It all adds pressure to your supply chain.

The question is how you stay competitive without compromising service.

That’s where intermodal comes into its own. Moving more of the journey by rail, while keeping road for flexibility, helps balance cost, efficiency and reliability.

At Newell & Wright Group, we help businesses find that balance every day.

At Newell & Wright, we believe the future of freight is green.

As we look toward 2026, we’re intensifying our focus on decarbonisation. By leveraging our strategic rail terminals in Sheffield and Rotherham, we’re helping partners shift cargo from road to rail -a move that can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 76% per tonne compared to heavy road transport.

Our commitment to a Net Zero future includes:

Optimising multi-modal routes to slash "food miles" and industrial carbon footprints.
Investing in cleaner technologies to meet the UK Government’s Decarbonising Transport milestones.
Strengthening the South Yorkshire green economy through smarter, more efficient logistics.
Investing in the future of rail helps reduce environmental impact, and at NWT, we are proud to be leading the charge toward a more sustainable tomorrow.
