Shipping Industrial Chemicals from Bangkok to Fortaleza via Ocean Freight

Transporting moisture-sensitive Chemical products necessitates tight-closing drums or jerricans, foil or poly liners, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. You 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 products, UN-certified packaging must be used when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific UN packaging code and performance level are based on 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 Specialty chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.

Most industrial chemicals shipments Require a DG shipping paper, the latest SDS, and complete labels and markings that align with the classification. Our team recommends including emergency contact details, handling instructions (e.g., “Keep Dry,” “Do Not Stack”), and any Permits required by local authorities for specific chemical goods.

You can sometimes consolidate different Specialty 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 Separate pallets and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.

Because industrial chemicals can cause Costly cleanup if leaks occur, enhanced freight insurance is advisable. Always review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and specialty chemicals are not excluded, and that coverage Includes contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.

When shipping chemicals via ocean from Bangkok to Fortaleza, it is crucial to adhere to the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code for proper classification, packaging, and labeling of hazardous materials. Additionally, the cargo should be stowed in a manner that prevents contamination and facilitates ventilation, considering the chemical's properties.

Exporting chemicals from Thailand to Brazil requires compliance with both countries' regulations. This includes obtaining necessary export permits from Thai authorities and ensuring that the chemicals meet Brazil's ANVISA and environmental regulations. Proper documentation, such as Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and customs declarations, must also be prepared to facilitate clearance at both ports.
