The time is now—partner with us to streamline logistics, minimize downtime, enhance safety, and reduce costs related to operations, labor, and transportation.
Catalyst Transfer & Repackaging
Our Service Centers provide a controlled environment for optimal transfer and repackaging of fresh catalysts and other support materials into reusable Catalyst Bins from drums, supersacks, and other packaging. We offer nitrogen blanketing for air and moisture sensitive catalysts to prevent degradation, as well as interim storage and warehousing for further protection from contamination.
On-Site Turnaround Support
Trained and certified Hoover CS personnel are available for on-site turnaround support, including the staging of bins, color coding & segregation, documentation, placarding, loading, and more. Whether you require catalyst turnaround logistics at your refinery, petrochemical plant, or processing unit(s), our services help to minimize downtime, ensure safety, maintain regulatory compliance, and optimize costs.
Bulk Services & Global Transloading
We manage the movements of fresh and spent catalyst between bulk storage containers, transport modes (trucks, railcars, and maritime), and their final destinations including reactors and processing units, regeneration facilities, manufacturing sites, and customer plants. Our specialized transport systems, dedicated trucks, and UN/DOT-compliant rail cars and augers help reduce the risk of leaks, spills, and similar environmental risks.
Responsible & Reusable Catalyst Packaging
Hoover CS’s fleet of UN-11AX approved carbon and stainless-steel Catalyst Bins are the environmentally responsible alternative to single-use drums and supersacks. Built with safety and dependability in mind, our bin rentals provide a reusable packaging solution for efficient handling and unloading of catalysts. When paired with our logistics services, you’ll reap the benefits of a more proficient, sustainable, and circular supply chain.
Domestic & International Transport
Our team coordinates third-party transportation of Catalyst Bins and bulk catalyst packaging via intermodal transport methods. We optimize the transportation mode (i.e. flat decks, LTL, van trailers, and more including maritime and rail options), and help manage the logistics from scheduling, tracking, and documentation. Maximize transportation efficiency and streamline costs with Hoover CS managed transport services.
Full Catalyst Management Services
Whether you require on-site support for continuous loading & unloading of catalyst, or need reliable catalyst packaging solutions with managed logistics for multi-unit turnarounds, we have the knowledge and expertise to handle it all. From the transfer and warehousing of fresh catalyst to the removal, repackaging & transport of spent, our full catalyst management services ensure catalyst integrity throughout its lifecycle.
