Website

HK Trans BV

A trilingual site that clearly explains tank containers, sea containers, and bulk and curtainsider transport, and brings requests with the right details straight to the planning desk.

Problem

HK Trans has been hauling for regular clients in the port of Antwerp since 2016, with tank and sea containers, bulk, and curtainsiders, but had no website of its own. Shippers and forwarders had nowhere to read what the company hauls, where it operates, and how fast the planning desk responds, and the only way to send a request was by phone or email.

Solution

A site with three service pages, a hand-drawn map of the service area, an FAQ with the sixteen questions the planning desk hears most, and a transport request form that asks for the right details up front. Fully in Dutch, French, and English, with the company’s own photos of its depot and fleet alongside port imagery, in the dark blue and orange of its own logo.

Result

Shippers see in their own language what HK Trans hauls and where, and every request arrives with exactly what the planning desk needs: transport type, loading point, unloading point, and date. An answer follows within 24 hours on working days, and for urgent runs the planning desk is reachable 24/7.

What we did

The main building blocks of the project, from research to post-launch follow-up.

Three service pages

Tank containers for the chemical and petrochemical sector and sea containers for import and export. Bulk and curtainsider transport with its three unloading methods: the client provides the trailer, HK Trans the tractor unit and the driver.

Three languages

Fully in Dutch, French, and English, with a language switcher in the header and per-language metadata and sitemap alternates.

Transport request

A form with transport type, loading point, unloading point, and preferred date, with spam protection and an email fallback.

Hand-drawn Benelux map

The service area at a glance: routes from the port of Antwerp to the major cities of the Benelux.

FAQ from the planning desk

Sixteen real questions in five topics, from services and fleet to ADR, ISOPA, and quotes, with jump links and also readable by Google as structured data.

Local SEO

LocalBusiness schema with home base, service area, and 24/7 opening hours. Plus dynamic social previews and a trilingual sitemap.

Privacy first

The OpenStreetMap map only loads after a click, and measurement only happens after consent via the cookie banner.

The fleet in numbers

A figures band on the home page with the company’s own tractor units, chassis, and drivers. The numbers live in one place, so every page shows the same ones.
