Explanation:
Kollo is a ship(ping) term, whereby everything in the Kollo (package) is part of it, in your case obviously wood that is going to be or has been shipped.

Kolliliste (your other question) is referring to a list of (wood) packages on board of a ship.

Lossteilliste is the list of wood items that do not belong to the Kolli, the packages.

Hope this helps.
