Shipping Chemical Products from Aliaga to Ningbo via Ocean Freight

Moving moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals necessitates tight-closing drums or jerricans, vapor-barrier wraps, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also clearly note “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and not use open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.

For most regulated chemical goods, UN-rated packaging must be used when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific UN packaging code and performance level are determined by the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Be sure to confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your industrial chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.

Most specialty chemicals shipments need a DG shipping paper, the latest SDS, and complete labels and markings that correspond to the classification. Our team recommends including emergency contact details, handling instructions (e.g., “Keep Dry,” “Do Not Stack”), and any licenses required by local authorities for specific Chemical products.

You may be able to consolidate different industrial chemicals, but only if regulatory separation requirements are met. First review the SDS and relevant ADR/IMDG/IATA tables to ensure acids, bases, oxidizers, flammables, and other chemical products are properly separated. Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.

Because specialty chemicals can cause environmental damage if leaks occur, enhanced freight insurance is advisable. Carefully review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and specialty chemicals are not excluded, and that coverage covers contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.

Chemicals must be properly classified and packaged according to international regulations, including the IMDG Code. Adequate labeling and documentation are essential to ensure safe transport and compliance with both Turkish and Chinese regulations.

Shipments of chemicals require adherence to both Turkish export regulations and Chinese import regulations, including obtaining necessary permits and ensuring compliance with safety data sheets (SDS) and any specific import licenses required by Chinese authorities.
