Adding Value & Versatility: Inside Our Transload Logistics
Our team at All Chemical specializes in transload logistics, such taking on complex projects like the transloading of chemicals from ISO containers to tanks. One recent job involved the heating and transloading of Flexibags, also known as flexitanks. This process required a high level of expertise and precision to ensure the safe transfer of the chemicals. Imagine the complexity of heating boxed wine within a container and transferring the liquid from a plastic bladder into a tank – that is one example of the intricacies involved in some of our customers’ projects.
Transloading products requires careful planning and execution to prevent any accidents or spills. Our team is committed to upholding the highest safety standards throughout the transloading logistics process.
Transloading involves transferring commodities from one mode of transportation to another. In our case, we often transload hazardous and non-hazardous bulk liquids from our customers’ ISO containers into our trailers.
We are known for our ingenuity and our customizable service offerings, which includes transloading. Because there is nothing we cannot, will not, or do not take on, this has led us to some unique transloading experiences.
Seamless, Customized Transloading Services
Transloading allows for products to continue their journey to their final destination using a different mode of transportation, or to consolidate shipments for greater efficiency. This plays a crucial role in supply chain optimization.
This is transloading 101:
- There are many variables to take into account when transloading a customer’s order. Viscosity, ambient temperatures, and container specifications to name a few!
- On average, the process takes an hour and a half to 2 hours. That’s a rough estimate, because we take as much time as needed to get the job done right.
- We transload just about anything with the exception of heavy inhalation hazard chemicals, like Benzoyl Chloride. In our rigorous commitment to safety, we don’t handle chemicals that could pose a safety risk to our team or the surrounding community.
- We can pick up your container from the pier, bring it to our facility to steam before, and wash after delivery, too!
There are a multitude of reasons why All Chem is everyone’s top choice. Between our dedicated problem solving, our stellar customer service that begins with “Sure, we can do that. How else can we help?”, it’s also because…
We are one of a handful of transload facilities in New Jersey, and our secondary containment capabilities put us a level above.
Not only are we one of the only facilities that can transload, we also aren’t stopped by inclement weather! While weather is a challenge for other carriers, if there is rain or snow, we can easily move operations to our roof enclosed wash bays. Even better, we have lengthy processes in place to prevent rain from getting into the tank and potentially contaminating the product.
Rain, sleet, and snow… we’ve got you covered!
Over the past few years, we have made significant investments in secondary containment. If a spill or hose breakage occurred during the transloading process (or any of our other transportation services), it’s much more manageable and isolated. There would be no sewage seepage into the ground, waterways and drains. Remember, we have a 100% secondary containment score with NJDEP (New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection)!
