At Loadstar, safety isn’t just a priority—it’s a core value that defines the way we work every day. That’s why we are especially proud to recognize and celebrate Koch Methanol’s outstanding achievement in being awarded the CSX Chemical Safety Excellence Award for 2024.

This prestigious award is presented to companies that demonstrate a strong, ongoing commitment to safe rail transportation of hazardous materials.

Collaborating with a team so dedicated to protecting people, communities, and the environment reinforces our own commitment to delivering safe and reliable service across every step of the supply chain.
