The IRM Difference
Turning Costs into Revenue...
Facing a disposal cost in excess of seven figures, a large refinery in the Gulf reached out to IRM for the purpose of disposing of 40,000 barrels of material in a tank that had stratified. IRM was able to purchase the material for re-use, allowing the refinery to turn their cost into revenue they had not foreseen.
... & Residuals into Returns
IRM was able to find a secondary market for 36 truckloads of Calcium Carboxylate Additive from a customer which would otherwise have been very costly to dispose of. Instead of paying disposal costs, our customer was able to turn a profit on their residuals.
Waste? No. Margins? Yes.
IRM has played a strategic role in helping a national pharmaceutical company in fulfilling its promise to stay “Zero Landfill”.
Rapid. Responsible.
In 2024, IRM placed 35 railcars of LCO/Sour Diesel over the span of 6 weeks. This allowed one customer to turn a tidy profit on material they no longer had use for in the timeframe they needed it removed, while another IRM customer was able to obtain the material at the price they were looking for.
Eco-Friendly.
Also in 2024, IRM was able to assist a customer in safely and conscientiously disposing of 33 truckloads of unusable material at a fraction of the cost.
You have Surplus. We have a Solution.
Upon losing their previous outlet and after trying unsuccessfully to offload a hard-to-move residue stream into a new market, a chemical manufacturer reached out to IRM. Within 48 hours, IRM had the material approved and the first shipment loaded. Today, we have a strong, ongoing partnership with the manufacturer.
Niche Market? No Problem.
A customer reached out to IRM needing a specific grade of aged nitrocellulose to use for coatings on musical instruments. Within two weeks, we were able to source the drums of material our new customer needed at low cost.
Your By-Products are Our Business.
IRM has taken a byproduct being used in a fuel oil blend to being a key feedstock for an oil and gas application, thereby vastly increasing the value of the material in the market.
