On April 1, 2025, deugro Houston hosted its first Annual Trucker Safety Forum.

The event convened representatives from Jetco Delivery, Palletized Trucking, Gulf Winds International, Bennett On-Site Services, Advanced Freight Dynamics, and deugro Houston’s department heads for a round-table discussion that centered on all aspects related to safety.

The discussion focused on collaboration between deugro and its partners to improve industry safety for all parties involved and their clients. The topics included changes in industry regulations impacting over-the-road movements, lessons learned from real-world incidents, and the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing safety. The forum was moderated by Bradley Horton, QHSES Advisor – North America, deugro. With extensive experience in health and safety in the oil and gas industry and years in law enforcement, he brings valuable knowledge of the US trucking industry and of the Department of Transportation’s regulations.

“The event fostered significant collaboration, offering valuable insights to all participants. It aligns with deugro North America’s ongoing commitment to prioritizing safety in our daily operations,” said Bradley Horton, QHSES Advisor – North America, deugro USA.

“It was very refreshing and satisfying to see our service providers take down the competitive barrier and transparently share with one another their approach and the tools they use in managing safety and working toward the same common goal as deugro, keeping everyone 100% healthy and safe,” added Donald Catchings, Head of Global Health, Safety, Environment and Security, at deugro.
