DX, a leading provider of logistics solutions across parcel, freight, fulfilment and final mile, announces the expansion of its dangerous goods transportation service. Operating wholly within the Limited Quantity rules, the enhanced capability gives customers the ability to move more of their product range through a single integrated logistics partner. It is also part of DX’s ongoing plans to further develop the depth and scope of its operations.
From DX’s initial entry into the sector with its biological materials service, DX now supports the delivery of a wide range of approved dangerous goods through its parcel and pallet services. This spans paints and coatings, cleaning chemicals, aerosols, adhesives and sealants, lubricants and oils, as well as resins and solvents, industrial chemicals, lithium batteries and battery-powered equipment. DX is also able to assist customers whose goods fall outside its standard Limited Quantity service with alternative solutions, enabling them to maintain one point of contact and consignment visibility.
DX’s enlarged service covers the minland UK and is supported by a newly-launched online information hub. The hub is designed to give customers easy access to information about the service, enable them to check the eligibility of their products for transport through the DX network, and a direct route to guidance from DX’s dedicated in-house team. The hub will continue to evolve as the business introduces additional tools and resources for customers.
Ian Truesdale, Chief Executive Officer of DX, commented:
“The expansion of our dangerous goods service means that customers will be able to move more of their products across the mainland UK with a single logistics partner. That reduces complexity while delivering operational and cost advantages for our customers.
“As our customers’ requirements continue to evolve, so does DX. Investing in specialist capabilities, such as Limited Quantity dangerous goods, enables us to support a broader range of delivery requirements while continuing to deliver the high levels of service our customers expect from us.”
