Shipping Specialty Chemicals from Shunde to Rio Grande via Ocean Freight

Transporting moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals Requires high-integrity packaging, foil or poly liners, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. It is important to Specify “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 products, UN-rated packaging Is required when shipping by road, sea, or air. The applicable UN packaging code and performance level are based on the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS.

Use segregation panels and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.
