Quantix SCS, LLC Unveils CLX Logistics Rebranding to Quantix Managed Solutions
In a significant move within the chemical logistics sector, Quantix SCS, LLC, North America’s preeminent provider of supply chain services to the chemical industry, has announced the rebranding of CLX Logistics to Quantix Managed Solutions. This transition, effective immediately, marks a new era in the company’s mission to enhance logistics services tailored for chemical manufacturing and distributions.
A Strategic Shift
This rebranding initiative is not merely cosmetic. It stems from Quantix’s strategic acquisition of CLX Logistics a year prior, which has since proven advantageous for its clientele. With this change, Quantix Managed Solutions will now provide a comprehensive array of services including Transportation Management Systems (TMS), Benchmarking, Managed Transportation, Supply Chain Consulting, and newly introduced Capacity Solutions tailored specifically for the unique demands of the chemical sector.
John Labrie, the President and CEO of Quantix, expressed optimism about the rebranding, stating, “The CLX Logistics acquisition has proven to be of great benefit to our customers. By leveraging the incredible, chemical-specific data that the team collects, our customers are saving money on everything from fuel to maintenance costs.” He further emphasized that this strategic shift allows for improvements in customer experiences, highlighted through services like white-glove delivery.
Understanding Industry-Specific Challenges
While many logistics providers categorize the chemical industry alongside various specialty sectors, Quantix recognizes the distinct challenges it faces. Zack Novak, Senior Vice President of Quantix Managed Solutions, stated, “Many providers lump the chemical industry into a 'specialty' bucket, but the reality is that their challenges are unique compared to more generalized logistics providers.” He noted that Quantix Managed Solutions is equipped to handle a wide variety of services, including long-haul management, hazardous materials transport, and emergency bulk shipments with short notice.
Quantix Managed Solutions boasts a remarkable $24 billion in lifetime freight spend within its proprietary Gravity database, which pulls from the wealth of data generated by its chemical industry clientele. Notably, one-third of that data pertains solely to liquid bulk transportation. This specificity is crucial in optimizing operations and ensuring the safety and efficiency of logistics for chemical providers.
Fostering Trust and Partnership
Brad Crocker, President and CEO of Trecora, a valued customer of Quantix Managed Solutions, underscored the impact of this service enhancement, saying, “Quantix Managed Solutions understands our business completely. They’re an extension of our team, and the trust we place in them reflects the quality they provide.” Such testimonials affirm the importance of having a logistics partner that not only understands operational needs but is also dedicated to exceeding service expectations within the chemical industry.
Looking Ahead
The renaming of CLX Logistics to Quantix Managed Solutions reaffirms Quantix’s commitment to expanding and refining its services dedicated to the chemical industry. As client needs evolve, Quantix aims to remain at the forefront, providing an unmatched suite of services designed to optimize supply chain operations across North America.
