Moving moisture-sensitive Chemical products Requires high-integrity packaging, vapor-barrier wraps, and moisture absorbers inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also clearly note “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and not use open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.

The applicable UN packaging code and performance level are determined by the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Verify with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your industrial chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.

Best practice is including emergency contact details, handling instructions (e.g., “Keep Dry,” “Do Not Stack”), and any licenses required by local authorities for specific Chemical products.
