Shipping Industrial Chemicals from Mundra to Callao via Ocean Freight

Moving moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals necessitates Sealed primary containers, foil or poly liners, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also indicate “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and steer clear of open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.
