Moving moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals demands tight-closing drums or jerricans, foil or poly liners, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also clearly note “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and not use open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.
For most regulated chemical goods, UN-rated packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific 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 specialty chemicals shipments need a dangerous goods declaration, the latest SDS, and complete 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 may be able to consolidate different industrial chemicals, but only if they are compatible. First review 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 specialty chemicals can cause environmental damage if leaks occur, specialized cargo coverage is advisable. 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.
Shipping chemicals requires compliance with specific handling protocols, including proper labeling, securing of containers, and adherence to safety regulations to prevent spills and leaks during transit.
Documentation typically includes a bill of lading, safety data sheets (SDS), and customs declarations, along with any specific permits required for hazardous materials under U.S. and Mexican regulations.
