Dangerous goods

The transportation of dangerous goods is subject to very detailed rules and regulations depending on the type of material being transported and the means of transport that is used. Each party involved in transporting dangerous goods has specific duties, starting with the consigner (also referred to as the sender), who must take care of classifying the goods, using appropriate packaging taking into account the hazardous characteristics of the goods, and supplying the carrier with all the necessary documents to ensure that the shipment is carried out safely in accordance with the best working standards.

We use certified suppliers, and our workforce remains constantly up-to-date on the rules and procedures for managing hazardous shipments.
