The Chemours Company (“Chemours”) (NYSE: CC), a global chemistry company with leading market positions in Titanium Technologies, Thermal & Specialized Solutions, and Advanced Performance Materials, today announced the winners of its third annual Carrier of the Year Award which recognizes excellence in the transportation of Ti-Pure™ titanium dioxide (TiO₂) to Chemours customers. Marten Transport (Platinum award) and Hirschbach Transportation Services (Gold award) have been recognized for the second consecutive year.

“Marten and Hirschbach are consistently reliable carriers, who meet and exceed our standard of excellence every year,” said Denise Dignam, President Titanium Technologies at Chemours. “They are helpful, customer focused partners who deliver exceptional service at a fair value and they help us serve our customers with excellence, speed, and reliability. We look forward to continuing to work with them and deliver high-quality titanium dioxide for years to come.”

Marten Transport, a U.S.-based transportation company, was named North American Platinum Carrier of the Year for the third year in a row boasting a greater than a 99% on-time pickup rate and over 98% on-time delivery rates. Hirschbach Transportation Services, a U.S.-based transportation company, was named the North American Gold Carrier of the Year for the second consecutive year with an on-time delivery rate of over 97%. Across categories, both companies performed strongly, showcasing dependability and commitment to partnership in serving Ti-Pure™ TiO₂ customers, including playing instrumental roles in the success of the innovative Track & Trace technology, which provides real-time delivery location and status to Ti-Pure™ customers. Both companies also find creative ways to minimize costs.

The Titanium Technologies supply chain, procurement, and logistics teams, with support from CLX Logistics, developed a consistent set of criteria to evaluate top North American carriers by load counts. Carriers were evaluated based on the 2022 rate of on-time pickup and delivery, customer service, safety, and ease of doing business, among other metrics. The Titanium Technologies team assesses its carriers on an annual basis.
