MEGlobal Wins National Safety Awards in Canada and US

Both MEGlobal Canada ULC and MEGlobal Americas Inc. have earned national safety awards for the safe transportation of their products in the United States and Canada.   

In the U.S., MEGlobal received a Pinnacle Award from Union Pacific (UP), honoring their dedication and commitment to safely transporting chemicals by rail. The annual award recognizes UP customers who implement release prevention protocols, corrective action plans and have zero non-accident releases of regulated hazardous materials shipments.

“Union Pacific congratulates this year’s Pinnacle Award winners for their outstanding commitment to safety,” said Kenny Rocker, executive vice president–Marketing and Sales. “At Union Pacific, safety is at the core of everything we do, and we are proud to partner with customers who prioritize the safe transportation of chemicals to protect the environment and the communities we serve.”

In Canada, MEGlobal received a 2024 Safe Handling Award from CN. The award recognizes customers who load freight cars with dangerous goods and meet rigorous safety standards in the handling and transportation of regulated products. Recipients must meet established criteria based on the total number of shipments of dangerous goods across all facilities.

“Safety is a shared responsibility—and we’re in it together. These awards recognize customers who lead by example, putting safe practices first with every shipment. Thank you for helping us protect our people and the communities where we operate,” said Buck Rogers, Vice-President Petroleum & Chemicals at CN.

The Safe Handling Award is an important part of the Responsible Care® Program, an ongoing performance improvement initiative in which CN is a partner, both in Canada and the U.S.

“Receiving both the Union Pacific Pinnacle Award and CN’s Safe Handling Award is a tremendous honor and a reflection of MEGlobal’s unwavering commitment to safety at every stage of our supply chain,” said Angela Ryan, Director ISC – America, MEGlobal. “These awards recognize the diligence, precision, and care our logistics teams and partners bring to protecting people, communities, and the environment every day.” For more information about MEGlobal, visit https://www.meglobal.biz.
