Highway Highlights #2: Safety First

Our commitment to safety and education never wavers. We keep it alive throughout the year with educational events and drills. In 2025, we did a suspicious package drill with Dow and a chemical spill drill with Resin Tech. Team members from all companies worked well together, learned from each other, and walked away with real-world experience. Learn more about each event in the newsletter clips below.

Highway Highlights #3: Shout Out to Our Technicians

They keep our trucks going, safely and efficiently. Downtime can be disastrous for a client's urgent load, so we rely on our techs to ensure that doesn’t happen. And they deliver, so our drivers can deliver for our customers. Thanks team, we're proud of you!

Highway Highlights #4: Florence, KY (Cincinnati) Service Center Spotlight

Just across the river from Cincinnati, our Florence Service Center is quietly achieving something exceptional. With only a handful of office staff, a small but experienced shop crew, and a high-performing tank wash, this location has managed to secure our prestigious Star of Excellence award nine times. How? According to the team, it comes down to relentless communication, pride in performance, and a deep sense of accountability that starts at the top.

“We may be a small team,” says Blake Horton, Florence’s long-standing Service Center Manager, “but we get a lot done. No day ever drags here. I think that’s part of what makes this place special—we thrive in the variety.” The center handles a wide mix of chemical products—from sodium silicate to surfactants and caustics—serving major clients.

According to Kevin Tully, National Account Executive for the Midwest, “Florence and Cincinnati have an advantage with their geographic reach, but what really sets them apart is how well they work together. Blake and his team know every lane, every tank, and every driver.”

Highway Highlights #8: Perstorp Lunch & Learn for Care365 Week

Collaborating with our partners at Perstorp’s Toledo, OH, manufacturing plant as part of their global Care365 Week was a highlight of our year! A hands-on water transfer and safety demonstration focused on health, safety, and responsible handling of bulk liquid materials.

Our professional drivers shared the safety precautions they practice every day—from proper loading and unloading setups to managing product surge on the road. In doing so, they explained the safety and monitoring technologies built into our equipment.

Congratulations to the Perstorp Group on your ongoing commitment to creating a safe culture for all employees and partners. Thank you for inviting us and for our continued partnership.

Highway Highlights #10: Sharing Knowledge

We have Executive Roundtable events each year, during which our leadership team meets with invited executives to discuss industry news and issues.

At our corporate office in Knoxville, TN, we welcomed vpalued customers from Sherwin-Williams, The Lubrizol Corporation, Mallard Creek Polymers, Univar Solutions, and Ecolab. After a tour of the corporate office where attendees met team leads from multiple departments, we had a tour of our nearby Knoxville service center showcasing our shop and tank wash operations. The event sparked meaningful conversations, with sustainability and communication emerging as key topics.

We are grateful to our customers from various companies for their time, candor, and commitment to strengthening valuable partnerships.
