Butyl Acrylate Transport
Bulk butyl acrylate transport across Mexico with dedicated stainless-steel tank trucks, regulatory compliance and nationwide coverage since 1988.
TRESAL (Transportes Especializados del Altiplano, S. de R. L. de C. V.) transports butyl acrylate (n-butyl acrylate, C₇H₁₂O₂, UN2348, Class 3 flammable liquid) in bulk across Mexico in dedicated stainless-steel tank trucks with full regulatory compliance. We have operated since 1988 with nationwide coverage and ISO 9001:2015 certification.
Who transports bulk butyl acrylate in Mexico?
TRESAL transports butyl acrylate for Mexican industry in dedicated stainless-steel tank trucks, without consolidating third-party freight, with nationwide coverage from its bases in Cuautitlán Izcalli (Greater Mexico City) and San Luis Potosí.
What is butyl acrylate used for?
Butyl acrylate is a monomer used to make acrylic emulsions and resins for paints, adhesives, coatings, textile finishes and superabsorbents.
Source for uses: PubChem (National Library of Medicine).
How is butyl acrylate transported safely?
Butyl acrylate is a combustible liquid (flash point ~37 °C) and a reactive monomer that polymerizes with heat; it is transported stabilized with an inhibitor. It requires a dedicated stainless-steel unit, temperature control, protection from sunlight, spill prevention and verified washing.

What handling precautions does butyl acrylate require?
Butyl acrylate irritates the eyes, skin and respiratory tract, has a pungent odor and can polymerize if overheated or if it loses its inhibitor. TRESAL personnel control temperature and inhibitor, use PPE, keep the area ventilated and follow emergency procedures.

Does TRESAL issue the safety data sheet (SDS)?
No. Under NOM-018-STPS-2015, the safety data sheet (SDS) is prepared by and is the responsibility of the manufacturer or importer of the chemical, not the carrier. As a carrier, TRESAL obtains the SDS from the shipper of each load and carries it on board for reference and emergency response; we neither issue nor replace that document. This separation of responsibilities is part of the regulatory compliance we provide.
