Shipping moisture-sensitive Chemical products necessitates high-integrity packaging, vapor-barrier wraps, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also indicate “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-certified packaging must be used when shipping by road, sea, or air. The applicable UN packaging code and performance level are determined by the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Always confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your industrial chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.
Most Chemical goods shipments Require a DG shipping paper, the latest SDS, and correct labels and markings that correspond to the classification. We recommend 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 Can often consolidate different Specialty chemicals, but only if regulatory separation requirements are met. Carefully verify the SDS and relevant ADR/IMDG/IATA tables to ensure acids, bases, oxidizers, flammables, and other Chemical goods Are not stored or loaded together. Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.
Because Chemical products can cause Costly cleanup if leaks occur, enhanced freight insurance is often required by buyers. Carefully review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and Chemical goods are not excluded, and that coverage covers contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.
Shipping chemicals requires adherence to strict safety protocols, including proper labeling, containment measures, and temperature control during transit. It is essential to ensure that the cargo is stowed in accordance with the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code to mitigate risks during the ocean journey.
The shipment of chemicals between Vietnam and Brazil is subject to both countries' regulations, including compliance with Brazil's National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply (MAPA).
