About SolidEx

The history behind solidex

Engineering you can stand behind

For decades, SolidEx has designed and built spin loaders from our facility in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and evolved into a larger manufactuing facility in Kansas to solve the same problems the industry has always had: getting product into a railcar without losing a pound of it along the way.

We’re here to answer all your questions

What does SolidEx do?

SolidEx designs and manufactures Spin Loader pellet spreaders and hopper car loading systems used to load bulk materials like pellets, flake, and powder into railcars.

Where is SolidEx based?

SolidEx manufacturing is produced currently at a combination of our Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Salina, Kansas facilities.

Who are SolidEx's spin loaders built for?

They're built for plastics producers and bulk material handlers who load covered hopper cars and need high fill efficiency with minimal spillage.

What makes SolidEx's engineering approach different?

SolidEx engineers its loaders around eliminating common failure points, like gearboxes and accumulation-prone surfaces, rather than just adding features on top of an existing design.

Does SolidEx support new builds or only retrofits?

SolidEx supports both, with seven spin loader models designed to fit grassroots facilities as well as retrofit projects on existing loading spouts.
