Hansatic
Hansatic is a logistics software platform that enables freight forwarders, manufacturers, and 3PL warehouses to plan container and truck loads in minutes. The platform optimizes 3D cargo arrangement to maximize space utilization rear loading with accurate calculations. Hansatic also provides a full suite of planning tools and generated documentation for shipping operations, including LCL, LTL, LDM, and multi-stop distribution planning.

Problem
Freight forwarders, manufacturers, and warehouses rely on manual or spreadsheet-based methods to plan container and truck loads, which is time-consuming and often results in inefficient space utilization Stan. This leads to higher shipping costs due to unused capacity and increased risk of cargo damage from poorly arranged loads.
Solution
Hansatic provides a software platform that automates the planning of container (FCL), truck (FTL), less-than-container (LCL), and less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments. Users input cargo dimensions and weights, and the system generates optimized 3D load plans that maximize space utilization, reduce wasted volume, and ensure safe weight distribution. The platform includes an extensive library of standard container and trailer sizes, and supports multi-container and multi-stop routing needs. Advanced features allow for auto-layout generation, LDM minimization or maximization, pallet position optimization, and axle load calculation, all accessible through a web-based interface.
Target Audience
The primary customers are freight forwarders, manufacturers, and third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse operators who need to plan and optimize cargo loads for containers and trucks.
