Aeropres Earns Fifth Consecutive Pinnacle Award for Rail Safety

Aeropres Earns Fifth Consecutive Pinnacle Award for Rail Safety

Aeropres Corporation has once again been recognized by Union Pacific Railroad with its prestigious Union Pacific Pinnacle Award—marking the fifth consecutive year the company has earned this distinction for excellence in chemical transportation safety.

The Pinnacle Award is presented annually to organizations that demonstrate an unwavering commitment to the safe transport of hazardous materials. Honorees meet rigorous criteria, including implementing release-prevention protocols, corrective action planning, and achieving zero non-accident releases of regulated hazardous-material shipments.

In 2025, 138 companies across the rail network were recognized for meeting these high standards. Aeropres’ continued inclusion reflects a deeply embedded safety culture—one that prioritizes precision, accountability, and continuous improvement across every stage of the supply chain.

At Aeropres, safety is more than compliance—it is operational discipline. From plant-level procedures to transportation logistics, every shipment is managed with a focus on protecting communities, supporting customers, and maintaining the integrity of the rail network.

Union Pacific reports that 99.99% of hazardous materials shipments across U.S. freight railroads arrive safely, a benchmark made possible through strong collaboration between carriers and customers. Their Hazardous Materials Safety team supports this effort through training, inspections, and a comprehensive approach centered on prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery.

For Aeropres, earning the Pinnacle Award five years in a row is both an honor and a responsibility—to continue raising the standard for safety, reliability, and performance in chemical transportation.
