OUR COMMITMENT TO SERVICE

• TruSouth’s commitment to providing unmatched service and support to our customers is the cornerstone of our corporate philosophy.
• TruSouth’s investment in the advanced analytical equipment combined with our rigorous quality control programs guarantee customers they are getting the value they deserve.

Laboratory Services

Quality control is the cornerstone of manufacturing at TruSouth. TruSouth maintains an onsite laboratory that is overseen by a full-time chemist. All incoming and outgoing materials are tested to back-up TruSouth’s high quality standards. A retain of product is kept for 6 months from the incoming raw material as well as each batch blended to ensure superior product quality. TruSouth’s chemist conducts a certificate of analysis on each retain. A number of different tests are then run on each batch to guarantee the quality of TruSouth’s products. The different tests assess viscosity, density, color, solidity and flammability. Results of the tests are included in the certificate of analysis and in the product spec sheets.

Tank Farm, Loading and Unloading Dock

TruSouth’s strategic location is in close proximity to several major interstates. We have dual loading/unloading racks as well as a dedicated rail spur—we are within half a mile of the Port of Shreveport-Bossier allowing us excellent access to barge and container transport. TruSouth’s facility also has convenient railway access. Our 42 onsite tanks can currently accommodate 1.25 million gallon of fluids. Like the plant and warehouse, the tank farm boasts the newest automated technology from position valves to inventory monitoring. Each tank has its own dedicated source & destination to ensure that fluids are not co-mingled.

Blending & Packaging Capabilities

Speed, accuracy and efficiency are vital in the manufacturing industry. TruSouth has made a significant capital investment in new, high speed filling and support equipment allowing for super efficient, precision operations. The computerized manufacturing and packaging systems are versatile too - we package container sizes ranging from 8 ounces to 55 gallon drums.
