For most regulated chemical goods, UN-certified packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air.

We recommend including emergency contact details, handling instructions (e.g., “Keep Dry,” “Do Not Stack”), and any Permits required by local authorities for specific chemical goods.

Use Separate pallets and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.
