Shipping Specialty Chemicals from Da Nang to Long Beach via Ocean Freight

Moving moisture-sensitive Chemical products demands tight-closing drums or jerricans, vapor-barrier wraps, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. It is important to clearly note “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-certified packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific 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 specialty chemicals shipments Require a dangerous goods declaration, the latest SDS, and complete 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 special approvals required by local authorities for specific Chemical products.

You may be able to consolidate different Specialty chemicals, but only if they are compatible. First review the SDS and relevant ADR/IMDG/IATA tables to ensure acids, bases, oxidizers, flammables, and other chemical products Are not stored or loaded together. Use segregation panels and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.

Because specialty chemicals can cause Costly cleanup if leaks occur, specialized cargo coverage is advisable. Carefully review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and Chemical goods are not excluded, and that coverage extends to contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.

Required documentation includes a Bill of Lading, Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), export declaration, and any necessary import permits specific to the chemical products being shipped. Compliance with both Vietnamese export regulations and U.S. import regulations is essential.
