A&R Takes Resin-able Measures

摘要

Some of the best-known chemical logistics challenges apply to hazardous liquids-but chemicals take other forms as well. A&R Logistics in Louisville, Ky, specializes in the transportation of plastic resin, a dry bulk material used to make all sorts of familiar products, from water bottles to recycling bins. As a carrier, A&R operates approximately 800 trucks and 1,200 trailers to move loads of resin pellets to manufacturing plants. As a 3PL, A&R combines its own transportation capacity with services from other carriers. "We also have a large network of rail sidings and transloading facilities," says Mark Holden, A&R's CEO. In addition, the company operates about 2 million square feet of warehousing and packaging space throughout the United States.
