About
Dangerous goods, also known as hazardous materials, are substances, products or articles which may pose a risk to people, animals or the environment if not appropriately handled during use or transport.
Many products which we encounter on a daily basis may be classed as dangerous goods or hazardous materials. Meaning they could pose a risk to our health if we come into contact with them too often or for too long.
Shipping dangerous goods worldwide can be a complicated process. Companies involved with the handling of dangerous goods must stay up to date with transport regulations, classification, packaging, labelling and documentation.
Dangerous goods packing is of paramount importance to ensure safety and protection against spillage and leakage. Especially when you consider that these goods are carried internationally on aircraft and ocean vessels.
