Shipping Chemicals from Aliaga to Rotterdam via Ocean Freight

Moving moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals Requires Sealed primary containers, vapor-barrier wraps, and moisture absorbers inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also indicate “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 Is required when shipping by road, sea, or air. The Exact UN packaging code and performance level are determined by the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Verify 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 Transport document, the latest SDS, and Accurate labels and markings that correspond to the classification. Best practice is including emergency contact details, handling instructions (e.g., “Keep Dry,” “Do Not Stack”), and any licenses required by local authorities for specific chemical goods.

You may be able to consolidate different industrial chemicals, but only if Segregation rules are followed. Always check the SDS and relevant ADR/IMDG/IATA tables to ensure acids, bases, oxidizers, flammables, and other Chemical goods do not conflict. Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.

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.
