Located in the Northeastern Industrial Park (Albany, N.Y.), Distribution Unlimited’s bulk transfer operation has 200+ acres, 16 miles of rail and an experienced, short line railroad in SMS Rail Lines.

The advantages of the Park have enabled Distribution Unlimited to experience a 140% increase in activity in its bulk transfer operations with projections to nearly double before 1st quarter 2012.

Currently the terminal brings in 3,000 railcars per year (equivalent to approximately 12,000 truckloads) of mixed commodities. Product is being received from all over the United States and Canada in commodities such as feed ingredients, fertilizers, grains, chlorides, plastic, starch, steel, supersack materials, machinery, poles, automobiles and more. Once railed in, the large volume is transferred from rail car to truck by conveyor, pneumatic pump or heavy lift equipment for final delivery to customers.

Over the past 6 months the Galesi Group has promoted the National Grid lighting program to our industrial tenants which has resulted in new, energy efficient lighting in over 600,000 sf. While the investment has been significant the savings both in terms of discounts for new lighting and energy usage is even more significant. It is estimated that we are saving 525,000 kWh annually within our industrial parks. If you decide to write any follow up articles on this subject we will be glad to provide testimony about the effectiveness of the program.

Beyond the National Grid program the Galesi Group has made significant advances towards environmental sustainability by aggressively promoting the use of rail, working towards LEED certification on new and existing facilities, and by partnering with Green Earth Technologies, an American clean-tech company.
