Shipping moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals Requires high-integrity packaging, foil or poly liners, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also clearly note “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-rated packaging Is required when shipping by road, sea, or air. The applicable UN packaging code and performance level are based on the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Be sure to confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your Specialty chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.
Most Chemical goods shipments need a Transport document, the latest SDS, and correct labels and markings that align with the classification. Our team recommends 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 industrial chemicals, but only if Segregation rules are followed. Carefully verify the SDS and relevant ADR/IMDG/IATA tables to ensure acids, bases, oxidizers, flammables, and other chemical products are properly separated. Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.
Because Chemical products can cause environmental damage if leaks occur, Additional cargo insurance is often required by buyers. Always review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and specialty chemicals are not excluded, and that coverage covers contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.
The shipping of chemicals requires specific documentation including a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), a commercial invoice, a bill of lading, and any necessary export permits from Canada, as well as import permits and compliance with Thailand's regulatory requirements for hazardous materials.
Chemicals must be handled according to international regulations, ensuring proper labeling, packaging, and stowage to prevent leaks or reactions. Additionally, specific temperature controls and ventilation may be required depending on the nature of the chemicals being transported.
