Transporting moisture-sensitive Chemical products necessitates Sealed primary containers, foil or poly liners, and Desiccants 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.

Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.
