Largest Chemical Company in the World Uses Porter Logistics for Import, Export, Distribution, and Manufacturing Plant Support
One of the largest chemical companies in the world needed a full 3PL Warehousing partner for HAZMAT Chemicals in Atlanta. Their manufacturing plant produces 100's of SKU's at scale across various Hazard classes and product was piling up at the end of the production line. Porter needed to warehouse imported materials, supply the plant with high volume daily shuttles, and then receive finished product across various Hazard classes. Porter then needed to distribute this product across the United States - fulfilling orders of drums, pails, IBC's, Bags, supersacks, and various form factors. Porter was also asked to provide export services to APAC, EMEA, & the Americas.

HAZMAT chemical warehousing involves the specialized storage and handling of hazardous materials and dangerous goods, ensuring compliance with strict safety and environmental regulations. Proper management of these materials is crucial to prevent accidents, protect employees, and avoid legal liabilities, thereby safeguarding your business operations.
Porter Logistics is registered with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a chemical handler. In addition, we undergo bi-annual audits by the Alliance for Chemical Distribution (ACD) to ensure our facilities meet or exceed industry standards for safety and compliance. Their Responsible Distribution program, which Porter has passed with flying colors, is the gold standard for compliance in the chemical industry.
Our warehouses are equipped with containment walls for spill mitigation and flame rooms with foam fire suppression systems for more exotic Class 3 flammables that either resist water-based suppression systems or have a low flashpoint at ambient temperature.
We also provide personal protective equipment (PPE) and maintain a fully trained staff knowledgeable in chemical regulations and safe handling procedures. Our staff is trained yearly in an intense, immersive CFR 49 (Code of Federal Regulations) which governs the shipping and transportation of hazardous materials.
Porter Logistics individually reviews and approves every chemistry and safety data sheet (SDS) prior to admitting it into our warehouse. In general, we handle Class 2-6, 8, and 9—with some exceptions based on risk profile. We do not handle Class 1 or 7 in any circumstances.
We employ advanced Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) that integrate with leading EDI management providers and offer pre-built integrations with over 50 shopping carts and marketplaces. This technology ensures real-time inventory tracking, compliance documentation management, and efficient order processing.
Yes, our Atlanta facility provides both flame room capacity with foam fire suppression and climate-controlled (heated and cooled) spaces to accommodate temperature-sensitive products. Porter Logistics also provides full cold storage, including refrigerated and frozen, for chemistries that require full cold chain temperature bands. Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, often hazardous and toxic to human health, are a good example of HAZMAT goods that require cold chain.
We offer comprehensive Safety Data Sheet (SDS) management, Certificate of Analysis (COA) tracking, and inventory expiration warnings for sensitive chemicals, ensuring all compliance documentation is up-to-date and accessible. We also provide temperature documentation for sensitive products.
In addition to storage, we offer services such as import and export processing, transloading, cross-docking, and order fulfillment, all tailored to meet the specific needs of businesses handling hazardous materials.
