Hazardous cargo carries obligations that begin before loading and continue past delivery: correct UN classification, a valid safety data sheet, dangerous-goods declaration, segregated port handling and the right licences held by the importer.

We check that the licences are in place before the cargo ships, because a hazardous consignment that arrives without them does not simply wait — it becomes a liability.

What holds up cargo in this sector

  1. UN classification and SDS

    Verified against the declaration before the cargo is loaded at origin.

  2. Licensing

    Explosives, fire and environment licences confirmed as current before shipment.

  3. Segregated handling

    Port handling and storage arranged to the applicable segregation rules.
