Rudlog Logística

What Rudlog Logística does

Rudlog Logística (legal entity Rudlog Transportes e Logística Ltda) is a Brazilian third-party logistics operator founded in January 2011 as a spin-off from the logistics unit of Rudnik Química, a distributor of chemical-industry inputs and raw materials. The company exclusively serves the chemical vertical, providing three integrated core services — Armazenagem (warehousing), Distribuição (distribution), and Transporte (transportation) — to petrochemical, paints and coatings, resin, lubricant, cosmetics, sanitizer, household product, and pharmaceutical clients. Operations are concentrated in Cotia, São Paulo, with three facilities (one headquarters and two warehouse/distribution branches) totaling 36,000 m² and 14,000 pallet positions, including specialized infrastructure such as a white-room pharmaceutical filling area, a dedicated flammable-goods warehouse, and vertical storage using Drive-in and Push-back racking.

The company operates a 40-vehicle own and monitored fleet, with 24-hour traceability through proprietary and third-party monitoring centers. Its technology stack centers on a proprietary WMS capable of managing multiple sites and inventory owners with real-time dashboards, cycle counts, FEFO/FIFO/SHELF-LIFE logic, barcode and radio-frequency capture, and a TMS that administers road cargo cycles and produces quantitative performance indicators. The platform supports web-based customer cargo tracking and SAC-driven real-time delivery information. Compliance posture is a defining element of the business: Rudlog holds ISO 9001:2015, SASSMAQ, ANTT, Cetesb, IBAMA, AVCB, SIVISA (transport, warehouse, filling), Federal Police, Civil Police, Brazilian Army, MAPA, and JUCESP licenses or certifications.

The go-to-market is enterprise B2B direct field sales with customized quoting and dedicated account management, primarily targeting chemical producers and distributors in the Greater São Paulo metropolitan region and the São Paulo state interior. Service scope includes container import/export transport (FCL/LCL/bulk/isotank), door-to-door delivery, milk-run collection programs, storage with GHS labeling and quality inspection, and fractional distribution. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated per client based on service scope. Rudnik Química remains a strategic parent, providing legacy customer relationships and chemical-domain expertise, though precise ownership stakes are not disclosed in available sources.
