LET US TAKE THE RISK

Inventory Capabilities

Our storage assets allow us to hold inventory so that it is available when our customers need it. We closely monitor market conditions to ensure our products are competitively priced.

  • 10,000 Metric Tons of US Gulf Coast Bulk Tank Storage
  • Marine Terminal Bulk Storage
  • Drum and Tote Warehousing

Bulk Tank Storage:

Third Coast Chemicals manages 10,000 Metric Tons of US Gulf Coast bulk tanks that are in-stock and ready to move.

Marine Terminal Access:

Marine access is a critical element to chemical distribution. The flexibility of leasing storage space in close proximity to one of the biggest ports of the world opens us to more opportunities.

Recovering Value:

The co-product and byproduct element of chemical production presents opportunities for us to stretch our portfolio into different markets adding more value to suppliers and presenting economical options to customers.

Packaged Products

WAREHOUSING:

Third Coast Chemicals maintains and manages warehouse space in Pearland, TX and Alvin, TX for packaged products minimizing order lead times and allowing for customers to purchase what they need when they need it.

WHITE ROOM PRODUCTS:

We specialize in meeting the demands of a growing food and pharma market. We have the capability of supplying Less than Truck Load (LTL) and Full Truck Load (FTL) totes and drums packaged under Kosher, US Pharmacopeia (USP), and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) requirements.

TOTE AND DRUM PACKAGING:

We provide products in bulk, 55 gallon drums, or 275 gallon totes. Our chemical distribution and packaging options are driven by the needs of our customers, so we constantly evaluate demand to present the most viable and economical options.

Chemical Distribution Solutions/Logistics

PUT OUR TEAM TO WORK

Door To Door Logistics

Third Coast Chemicals provides an expansive network of logistics solutions to facilitate door to door chemical distribution for our products so our customers can focus their energy elsewhere.

  • Dedicated Transportation
  • Bulk Marine Services
  • Breakbulk & Transloading
  • Container Loading & Transport Services
  • Flexitank & ISO Container Loading

Dedicated Equipment:

Quality is important. In the cases where the prior cargo could potentially have an adverse effect on the product being loaded, we enlist vessels that contain the same product to minimize risk of contamination. Where Kosher and USP guidelines are required, we provide food grade equipment maintained for food grade products.

Dedicated Rail Fleet:

Third Coast Chemicals leases and manages a fleet of railcars to handle the specific needs of its bulk rail customers.

Bulk and Container Marine Services:

Seeing the process through from large liquid bulk storage to the customer’s location calls for partnerships in the maritime space. We provide an added value of managing the break-bulk process from the manifold of our holding tanks to the door of our international customers by providing door to door logistics in ISO-tanks, flexi-tanks, bulk vessels and intermodal transport.
