Transporting moisture-sensitive Chemical products demands high-integrity packaging, Barrier liners or overbags, and moisture absorbers inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also Specify “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and Avoid open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.

For most regulated chemical products, UN-certified packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The applicable UN packaging code and performance level Depend on 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.
