Shipping moisture-sensitive chemical goods Requires tight-closing drums or jerricans, vapor-barrier wraps, and drying agents inside cartons or overpacks. Shippers should also clearly note “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and steer clear of open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.
For most regulated Industrial chemicals, tested and approved packaging Is required 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. 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 Chemical goods shipments must include a Transport document, the latest SDS, and complete labels and markings that correspond to 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 Can often consolidate different chemical products, but only if Segregation rules are followed. First review the SDS and relevant ADR/IMDG/IATA tables to ensure acids, bases, oxidizers, flammables, and other Chemical goods are properly separated. Use physical barriers and clear labeling when combining multiple hazard classes.
Because Chemical products can cause significant loss if leaks occur, Additional cargo insurance 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 labeling and packaging according to international and local regulations. Additionally, specific handling procedures must be followed to prevent spills or leaks, and the cargo should be stowed securely to avoid shifting during transit.
Regulatory requirements include compliance with the Chinese regulations on hazardous materials, which necessitate specific documentation such as a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and compliance with the National Standards of China for the transport of chemical products.
