Shipping Specialty Chemicals from Xiaolan to Istanbul via Ocean Freight

Transporting moisture-sensitive Chemical products demands tight-closing drums or jerricans, vapor-barrier wraps, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also 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 chemical products, UN-certified packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The specific 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.

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

You can sometimes consolidate different Specialty 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 goods Are not stored or loaded together. Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.

Because industrial chemicals can cause Costly cleanup if leaks occur, specialized cargo coverage is advisable. Carefully review your policy to confirm that dangerous goods and Chemical goods are not excluded, and that coverage covers contamination, disposal, and emergency response costs where applicable.

When shipping chemicals, it is crucial to ensure proper packaging to prevent leaks and contamination. Additionally, the cargo must comply with international maritime regulations for hazardous materials, including labeling and placarding requirements. Temperature control may also be necessary for certain chemical products during transit to maintain stability.

Essential documentation includes a Bill of Lading, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), and export permits specific to the chemicals being shipped. Import permits from Turkish authorities are also necessary, along with customs declarations that comply with both Chinese and Turkish regulations for chemical goods.
