ChemLogix Expands BulkTainer Intermodal Operations

Press release from: ChemLogix LLC
ChemLogix LLC has experienced a very successful year with its BulkTainer intermodal operations since acquiring the business from Union Pacific last April. To support its growing business, the chemical logistics services provider has expanded its intermodal operations through the recent acquisition of 20 new ISO tank containers. The intermodal tanks will be used for shipping bulk liquids long distances by integrating both truck and rail modes of transport.

“The combination of lower rates and the shift towards more environmentally friendly business practices is making intermodal transportation a more attractive alternative to over-the-road tank trucks,” states Stephen Hamilton, Managing Director, ChemLogix Global. “In addition to offering customers access to state-of-the-art ISO tanks and equipment, our Transportation Management Group offers 75 years of combined experience, enabling us to provide best-in-class customer service and very competitive rates.”

Both lightweight and assembled with US fittings, the ISO tanks that ChemLogix deploys are built specifically for the North American market. “Ease of use is critical in getting customers to move away from expensive long haul trucks to the more cost effective and green intermodal mode,” notes Hamilton. “We stress modal shifts to our customers to help save on transportation costs.”

A single intermodal train takes up to 280 trucks off our highways, reducing traffic congestion and pollution in the process, Hamilton adds. “While our current clients realize the benefits of shipping via intermodal, the word is getting out to the few shippers that don’t already utilize this service.”
