For the sixth time in the past two decades, Distribution Technologies Inc. (DistTech), a carrier specializing in dedicated and common carriage for liquid bulk commodities, has earned the Outstanding Performance Trophy
in the National Tank Truck Carriers (NTTC) Tank Truck Safety Contest.
DistTech was selected from a group of 13 carriers that won the Grand Award in their respective mileage categories for calendar year 2005.
The annual NTTC Safety Contest honors carriers whose safety management programs produce exemplary results. Heil Trailer International presents the Outstanding Performance Trophy annually to the carrier that is judged to have the best all-around safety program in the tank truck industry during the previous year.
With an accident frequency of only .032 per million miles for 2005, DistTech won the Grand Award in the 35-45 million miles class in the Competitive Safety Contest and the Improvement Award in that same mileage category for the Personnel Safety Contest. The carrier also received a 15-year Improvement Award. DistTech will accept the awards at NTTC’s Annual Conference in San Antonio May 7-9.
“To win the prestigious Outstanding Performance Trophy for the sixth time since 1987 is definitely a testament to the intense focus that our driving force maintains on safety every single day,” said John Rakoczy, chief operations officer for DistTech. “We’re proud of our entire fleet for being recognized as the best of the best in our industry.”
In addition to consistently being recognized by the NTTC for fleet safety, 53 of DistTech’s drivers have achieved at least one million miles of accident-free miles throughout their driving careers.
Headquartered in Newbury, Ohio, DistTech operates more than 30 facilities nationwide.
