Shipping Industrial Chemicals from Santo Tomas de Castilla to Mexico City via Ocean Freight

Shipping moisture-sensitive chemical goods demands Sealed primary containers, Barrier liners or overbags, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also indicate “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 Industrial chemicals, tested and approved packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The Exact UN packaging code and performance level Depend on the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS.

You Can often consolidate different chemical products, but only if they are compatible.
