Dangerous Goods Transportation

Dangerous goods transportation refers to the transport of substances that pose potential hazards to humans, animals, plants, or property during transit. These substances may threaten safety due to their chemical, physical, or biological properties. Internationally, dangerous goods are typically classified into different categories based on their properties, with corresponding labels and regulations established to ensure appropriate safety measures are taken throughout the transportation process.

Dangerous goods are classified into the following nine major categories, including but not limited to explosives, flammable materials, toxic substances, and radioactive materials. We accept shipments of various dangerous goods:

• Class 1: Explosives (e.g., fireworks or flare signals)
• Class 2: Gases (including flammable gases, non-flammable/non-toxic gases, and toxic gases)
• Class 3: Flammable Liquids (e.g., solvents or paints)
• Class 4: Flammable Solids, substances liable to spontaneous combustion, and substances which, on contact with water, emit flammable gases
• Class 5: Oxidizing substances and organic peroxides
• Class 6: Toxic and infectious substances
• Class 7: Radioactive material
• Class 8: Corrosive substances (e.g., bleach or drain cleaners)
• Class 9: Miscellaneous dangerous substances and articles (e.g., airbags, magnetic materials, lithium batteries, and dry ice)
