SafeRack and Eco-Services work together for updated acid loading platforms for Railcar loading

Rhodia company, now known as Eco-services, was in need of upgrading their old, antiquated acid loading platforms to one updated continuous platform for loading railcars. They knew that SafeRack was right for the task. This project started back in 2011-2012 but took time due to the delicacy that came with this operation.

Due to the challenges of loading acid, Eco-Services requested fiberglass walk surfaces on both the platform and gangways that SafeRack was providing as well as rise over run stairs and pipe handrails. But not to worry, SafeRack was up to the challenge of satisfying the customer. The challenge was integrating their existing perpendicular pipe racks to SafeRack’s long canopy platform system without disrupting their product pipe header and shutting the loading process down for an extended period of time.


SafeRack slowly dismantled their existing platforms with careful precision taking into consideration that Eco-Services had three overhead perpendicular pipe racks that were feeding the acid railcars.
