When shipping from Busan to Omaha, be mindful of the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November) by building in buffer days and securing alternative routing options. Expect delays due to North Pacific Winter Storms (December-March) and adjust schedules accordingly. During peak retail periods, such as the Christmas retail peak (October-December) and Black Friday/Cyber Monday (mid-November to early December), book vessel space well in advance to avoid congestion. Additionally, adjust cut-off times and delivery windows to mitigate the impact of seasonal disruptions.

Shipping moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals necessitates tight-closing drums or jerricans, foil or poly liners, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also Specify “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and steer clear of open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.
For most regulated Industrial chemicals, UN-rated 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 Chemical goods shipments need 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 licenses required by local authorities for specific Chemical products.
You Can often 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 Chemical products can cause environmental damage 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 covers contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.
When shipping chemicals, it is essential to ensure that the cargo is properly packaged according to international regulations and standards to prevent leaks or spills. Additionally, it is important to use containers that are suitable for the specific type of chemical being transported, as some chemicals may be hazardous and require special handling procedures.
Shipping chemicals from South Korea to the United States requires compliance with both countries' regulations, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations for hazardous materials and the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Proper documentation, such as Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and import permits, must be provided to ensure compliance with U.S. customs and safety standards.
