Moving moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals demands tight-closing drums or jerricans, Barrier liners or overbags, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks.

For most regulated chemical goods, UN-rated 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 licenses required by local authorities for specific chemical goods.

First review 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.
