Supporting Safer Work Environments with Reliable Access Solutions
About Industrial Sulfur Transport
Sulfur is the 10th most abundant element in the universe, accounting for nearly 3% of Earth’s total mass. It plays a crucial role in producing rubbers, detergents, fungicides, plastics, fertilizers, and sulfuric acid, the world’s most widely used chemical.
Globally, approximately 70 million tons of sulfur are produced annually, primarily as a byproduct from petroleum refineries and natural gas plants. The growing demand for sulfur presents molten sulfur transport facilities with unique safety and operational challenges, requiring specialized loading systems and compliance with OSHA sulfur handling safety requirements.
How Is Molten Sulfur Transported?
Molten sulfur transport requires maintaining a specific temperature range to keep the material in liquid form while preventing dangerous vapor buildup. Before transport, sulfur is heated to its melting point of 239°F, and during transit, it must remain between 266°F and 309°F to ensure safe loading and unloading.
If sulfur exceeds 309°F, it can generate sulfur dioxide, a toxic gas that is fatal if inhaled. Additionally, high concentrations of sulfur vapor combined with water vapor can trigger explosions. Since liquid sulfur is highly flammable, sulfur loading platforms and bulk liquid sulfur loading equipment must be designed to mitigate heat exposure risks and protect workers.

What Customers Are Saying

User friendly and SAFE! User friendly and SAFE! Well built and built to customers needs. The quote was received in a timely matter. The sales team was friendly and professional. The unit is built well and to our exact needs.
By Ryan E. from Glacial Lakes Energy LLC

Made in the USA, Perfect product! It works, easy to install, well-written assembly instructions, bolt holes all line up PERFECT, I MEAN PERFECT. You have no idea how much of a difference it makes when products are machined to perfection.
You have my recommendation. Not just because you make a great product, but because you listen to feedback and take it seriously instead of the usual it will never happen again" speech. I found that you act on feedback, which is a huge reason to continue being a repeat customer."
By Matthew H. from Twin Eagle Sand Logistics, LLC

I should have used SafeRack from the get-go. I originally planned on using a different vendor, but they didn't have the stock. I needed the derail ASAP and went ahead with SafeRack. I should have used SafeRack from the get-go anyhow. Keeps the FRA compliant. Keeps transloader operator safer. Very simple to install, use and operate.
By Vern B. from Quality Carriers

Fantastic response from Molly Laqua! Fantastic response from Molly Laqua! In this order, she went above and beyond to make sure our order was taken care of. Our product arrived yesterday in record time. We are very pleased with the personal attention paid to this order even though we are not new to ordering with SafeRack. Thanks again for the great service!
By Andrew G. from AUC Group, L.P.

Quality is much better than expected. The assembly instructions were very simple and detailed and just two steel erectors did this in just a couple of hours, start to finish. Quality is much better than expected, hoisting the ladder is easy and simple.
By Project C. from SI Group

Safe, easy to operate gangways – and a great company, too. Everyone is very friendly and professional with me. I received updates on when the unit will ship from Customer Service and they worked with us on what carriers we want them to ship it with. Safety for the truck drivers using the gangways is important. They are easy to operate for all types of people. Springs are very easy to adjust. Foot lock lever seems to work well. I would recommend your product because it has been a good product for us and I really think that the customer service that goes along with a great product cannot be beaten. Good product and a good company to go along with it.
