What POLL Nussbaumer does

Poll-Nussbaumer Sp. z o.o. is a Polish private limited liability company (Sp. z o.o.) and operating subsidiary of the family-owned Austrian parent Poll-Nussbaumer GmbH, based in Gmunden, which claims 150 years of history in the transport industry. The Polish entity is headquartered at ul. Zabełkowska 26, 47-460 Chałupki, Poland, and specializes in international silo transport of bulk dry goods — including plastic granules, talc, sand, cement, gypsum, animal feed, salt, starch, lime, soda, and clay — across Poland and the wider European market. Its customer base spans the plastics, paints and coatings, glass and ceramics, construction, and agriculture sectors, served primarily through enterprise field sales and direct dispatcher coordination.

The company's core technology is a specialized silo transport fleet comprising silos (33-65m³), liftable trailers (38-60m³) with automatic product suction and pressure unloading, bottom-dump trailers (32-36m³), and 59m³ pressure containers engineered for intermodal road-rail transport. These trailers enable capabilities including cargo recovery following road accidents involving silo trailers and removal of contaminated or mis-mixed product from stationary silos. The fleet is continuously modernized to comply with strict environmental and quality standards.

The business operates on a transaction-fee revenue model, billing clients per transport job with pricing determined by cargo type, distance, volume, and specific requirements; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct B2B sales targeting enterprise industrial clients, coordinated through professional dispatch teams and supported by a multilingual corporate website (Polish, German, Ukrainian) plus direct phone/email sales contact. The GTM emphasizes direct communication, customized logistics concepts, and long-term client relationships alongside one-time transactional customers.
