Shipping Chemical Products from Wuhan to Ningbo via Ocean Freight

Transporting moisture-sensitive chemical goods demands tight-closing drums or jerricans, Barrier liners or overbags, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. You should also clearly note “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, tested and approved packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific UN packaging code and performance level Depend on the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Always confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your Specialty chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.

Most industrial chemicals shipments must include a dangerous goods declaration, the latest SDS, and complete labels and markings that Match the classification. We recommend including emergency contact details, handling instructions (e.g., “Keep Dry,” “Do Not Stack”), and any Permits required by local authorities for specific chemical goods.

You can sometimes consolidate different chemical products, 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 goods Are not stored or loaded together. Use Separate pallets and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.

Because industrial chemicals can cause significant loss if leaks occur, specialized cargo coverage is advisable. Review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and Chemical goods are not excluded, and that coverage Includes contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.

When shipping chemicals, it is essential to ensure that the cargo is properly packaged and labeled according to international regulations. Additionally, the containers must be compatible with the specific chemical properties to prevent any reactions during transit.

Required documentation includes a bill of lading, a commercial invoice, and a safety data sheet (SDS) for the chemicals being shipped. Compliance with local regulations concerning hazardous materials is also necessary, which may include specific permits or declarations depending on the nature of the chemicals.
