SEI Solutions LLC has found a new home in Houston to better accommodate the robust growth the company has been experiencing for the past several years. The company moved its Gulf Coast regional office into a Highlands, Texas, facility ideally suited to support the safety, environmental and industrial services the company provides.
The facility also contains expanded shop capabilities for vacuum and tanker trucks and a large truck-washing bay with supporting infrastructure. These features have become necessities to the company due to its rapidly expanding fleet.
“We literally had no space left to park or sit down at our old place in La Porte! Now we have dozens of cars parked for guys working in five states, and we have plenty of space to spare,” noted SEI Senior Account Manager Debbie Gray.
Much of the reason for the company’s expansion in Houston has been the addition of the Safety Services and Environmental Services divisions of the company, which began in northwest Indiana and have since grown into the Gulf Coast region. Since 2015, hundreds of area craftsmen and women have been trained by SEI Solutions’ Regional Safety Director Justin Gray at the Houston Area Safety Council (HASC). SEI partners with HASC to provide hands-on interactive training for confined-space entry, bottle watch, fire watch and hazardous materials response.
A key feature of the training that no one forgets is SEI’s Mobile Interactive Training Simulator (MITS) trailer. The trailer is a state-of-the-art, fully immersive training environment for confined-space entry, confined-space rescue and high-angle rescue. The MITS is equipped with numerous infrared cameras, allowing trainers to view trainees as they attempt to cope with simulated aggravating factors in confined space entry and rescue procedures. The MITS has been making the rounds to several local facilities as a training tool and as a demonstration format for SEI Solutions’ rescue teams to display their proficiency to both current and potential customers.
Starting in 2016, SEI Solutions extended its Environmental Services division into Houston as well. At that time, the company began to provide hauling, emergency response, and environmental remediation services from its Houston regional office. The success of this line of services further expanded the fleet and the need for additional storage for supplies and accessories.
The new facilities have allowed SEI Solutions to add the new service lines to the industrial services it has provided for many years throughout the region. These services include vacuum truck operations, automated hydroblasting, tank cleaning, rail car cleaning, carbon dioxide blasting, tank cleaning and hydroexcavation.
