Industry
You have challenges. We have solutions.
Hanson’s industry team focuses on your industrial and terminal site, rail, material handling and logistics needs. We begin by understanding the goals and expectations for your project while prioritizing your financial parameters. Using our proprietary analysis tools, we help you refine your project scope so you can cost-effectively achieve your production and operational objectives. We have a proven track record of providing solutions that integrate logistics and engineering within budget and on time.
Every product, terminal and industrial facility is different. We recognize the diverse needs of transportation, distribution, midstream, port and industrial clients, approaching every project as a partnership and understanding that success is when operations begin and revenue is generated. Whether you’re looking to expand your facility or improve your operation, we can assist you.
Our analysis and engineering solutions include civil, rail, structural, loading and unloading systems; operational analysis; site logistic evaluations; environmental site assessments; and permitting and compliance audits for terminals, ports and industrial facilities. We also offer geotechnical engineering, environmental services, surveying, land acquisition, commissioning, construction management and specialty services. We also service the Class 1 and regional railway industry.
