Major International Projects: Relocating Entire Facilities Worldwide
Some projects in the industrial equipment trade go far beyond the purchase and sale of a single machine: Entire production lines or complete plants are relocated—often across multiple continents. Such large-scale international projects span months and require the coordination of many stakeholders across national borders. Transorgatec has been active in the global and international trade of industrial equipment and used textile machinery for about 29 years and reliably manages precisely these types of large-scale projects as a one-stop provider.
What Makes a Major Project in the Plant Engineering Industry
Anyone looking to buy or sell an entire plant faces a different challenge than when dealing with individual machines. Dozens of machines, switchgear, piping, and peripheral equipment must be documented as a complete system, evaluated, and dismantled in the correct order. Errors in planning lead to delays that ripple through the entire supply chain. That is why every project begins with a thorough inventory and a realistic assessment of all equipment.
Coordination Across National Borders
An international project brings together participants from various countries: sellers and buyers, dismantling teams, freight forwarders, shipping companies, banks, and government agencies. Time zones, languages, customs procedures, and licensing processes must all be coordinated. Our job is to keep all these threads together and provide the participants with a dedicated point of contact—from the initial inquiry through to commissioning at the destination.
From Dismantling to Shipping
Once the plan is in place, implementation follows: professional industrial dismantling —first electrical, then mechanical—safe packaging for long sea voyages, international transport (including heavy-lift and oversized shipments), and container loading at the port. Large pieces of equipment quickly fill numerous containers, and their loading and shipment must be carefully planned to ensure that everything arrives at its destination in the correct order.
Payment Guarantees and Reconstruction
With project values of this magnitude, payment processing is critical. We routinely secure cross-border transactions using letters of credit, ensuring that both buyers and sellers are equally protected. At the destination, the equipment is reassembled and put back into operation—and, thanks to thorough documentation from the dismantling process, is ready for production in a short time.
Experience You Can Rely On for Large-Scale Projects
With nearly three decades of experience in the international machinery trade, we have built a robust network and developed the expertise to complete projects—even those lasting several months—on schedule. Whether you’re winding down an entire operation, relocating production, or looking to buy or sell used textile machinery and industrial equipment —we provide a one-stop solution for appraisal, disassembly, transportation, and reassembly.
