Shipping Chemical Products from Nuevo Laredo to New Orleans via Ground Freight

Shipping moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals demands high-integrity packaging, vapor-barrier wraps, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. It is important to 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 Industrial chemicals, UN-rated packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The applicable UN packaging code and performance level are determined by the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Always confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your industrial chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.
