Transportation solutions for a heavily regulated industry
Chemical, petrochemical, polymer and biofuel logistics, with hazmat-certified personnel and a vetted carrier network — drums, IBCs, totes, packaged goods or flexitanks, hazardous or not.
Stringent requirements need a partner who has met them before
The transportation of chemicals brings stringent environmental, safety and security requirements, which is why it matters that your logistics provider has actually operated in the sector.
With over 65 years of experience across the chemical, petrochemical, polymer and biofuel sectors, we have a track record of delivering chemical products safely and on time.
A dedicated logistics coordinator handles your shipments end to end and provides proactive updates, continually reviewing your shipping activity for time and cost savings rather than waiting to be asked.
Because of their potential impact on health, safety, security and the environment, chemical shipments present unique challenges. Our coordinators make sure operational and safety requirements are followed exactly and that documentation is accurate and on time.
