BNSF Railway honors industry standouts for exceptional product safety

FORT WORTH, Texas, June 30, 2026 - BNSF Railway recently honored 103 customers with the railroad's annual Product Stewardship Award for the safe transportation of hazardous materials by rail.

Companies receiving the award transported an established minimum of loaded tank cars of hazardous materials with zero non-accident releases during last year's full transportation cycle. These customers also upheld the ethics of Product Stewardship under the American Chemistry Council's Responsible Care® initiative.

"Safety isn't just a priority at BNSF; it's the foundation in which we build upon for defining success," said BNSF Vice President of Safety Chad Sundem. "Our strongest advantage is to partner with companies who meet our own safety expectations every day. This recognition highlights our shared mission to move essential materials across our network with the highest level of protection and excellence."
