On April 1, 2022, our “old hand” Michael Langenhorst celebrated his 40th company anniversary in the cooperative.

On April 1, 1982 his “career” began at Elbia Eilfracht, which later merged with Transport-Genossenschaft zu Berlin eG to form Transport-Genossenschaft Binnenschifffahrt eG (TGB).

In 1990, TGB eG then merged with the then PTG Partikulier – Transport-Genossenschaft Jus et Justitia eG and thus founded the DTG DEUTSCHE TRANSPORT-GENOSSENSCHAFT BINNENSCHIFFFAHRT eG.

Mr. Langenhorst has been involved in all these mergers and has survived them all.

As he is mainly responsible for the payments to our members in the accounting department, he is for many the “most important man” in the house and enjoys great popularity.

We would like to thank him for his patient manner, his loyalty and his constant commitment to our members.We hope that he will remain with us for as long as possible and we congratulate him wholeheartedly on this special and nowadays quite rare anniversary.

As of 31.12.2021, DTG eG has acquired all shares of EuroPart Partikulier GmbH from MSG eG. and is now the sole shareholder.The headquarters were relocated from Würzburg to Duisburg and the flag of the DTG was adapted.

We are very pleased that the son of one of our member ships made a fantastic appearance on the popular TV show “Klein gegen Groß“ (Small against big) on 19.02.2022.

He did really well, not only in the challenge part of the show, but also in the short film about his life on board a barge. We don’t want to give too much away, so see for yourself:

After another challenging year that has demanded a great deal from all of us, this quote by Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen is as relevant as ever.

We hope that you will be able to use the Christmas period to come to rest and to reflect on the content of this message in the company of your loved ones. Only together with our families, friends and business partners will we succeed in coping with the challenges that lie ahead.

We would like to thank you all for the positive and cooperative partnership over the past year. We wish you and your families a peaceful holiday season and all the very best for a healthy 2022.

Since 01.03.2021 DTG is a member of the BAV Bundesverband der Altholzaufbereiter und -verwerter | German Waste Wood Association.

… to say thank you for the things of the past so that the things of the future can start well.

The “fairy godmother” of our Hamburg office, Rita Hammer, is retiring on 28 February 2021 after almost 30 years with our company.

We would like to thank her for her loyalty, her willingness to listen and for all the good she has done.

We send her our best wishes for the future, which will be very different from now, but also very special. Above all, we wish her good health.

One of our DTG members made us aware of the industrial painter Alexander Calvelli, who is well-known for his photorealistic paintings of industrial, mining and shipping scenes.

We were so enthusiastic about his work, and so captivated by his personality, that we set up a small exhibition of his pictures in our offices in Duisburg – as the following photos show.

His pictures are a great idea as a present for special occasions, or for someone special from our type of business.

If you are interested in one of these pictures, or would like to view many further pictures, please contact the artist direct:

We wish Alexander Calvelli success for the future and inspiration for many further works of art!
