Hupac is a Swiss company specialising in unaccompanied combined transport – the movement of semi-trailers, swap bodies and containers by rail. It operates an extensive network of shuttle and block trains connecting major industrial and seaport locations in Western Europe with key destinations in Eastern Europe, with the Swiss Alpine corridors holding particular strategic importance. Shippers and freight forwarders use Hupac services primarily on routes where rail offers a more economical or sustainable alternative to pure road haulage, whether because of distance, congestion risk, or emissions requirements. Unlike a conventional carrier, Hupac essentially provides traction capacity and terminal access; road pre- and on-carriage remains with the trucking operator. The company is majority-owned by freight forwarding and rail enterprises and is headquartered in Chiasso.
