The Challenge
Railcar Decontamination
Smashed tomatoes are messy!
A major food manufacturer experienced contamination during rail transport, creating an urgent need for waste cleanup and railcar decontamination services.
The incident required an immediate response that balanced regulatory compliance, environmental responsibility, and minimal downtime
The TBK Solution
Mobilization
TBK Environmental mobilized its emergency response team.
Our experts implemented a comprehensive waste management and remediation plan designed to meet the highest standards of EPA compliance, worker safety, and sustainability.
Sustainable Waste Disposal
Instead of sending the impacted food material to a landfill, TBK engineered a sustainable waste disposal pathway. This process aligned with our client’s environmental goals by prioritizing recycling, recovery, and landfill diversion, reducing both waste volume and environmental impact.
Railcar Decontamination & Restoration
The contaminated railcar was fully cleaned, sanitized, and restored through TBK’s certified railcar decontamination services. Our technicians followed strict decontamination protocols and compliance documentation, returning the railcar to operational and regulatory standards—fast.
