What is Dangerous Goods (DGR) Handling?

Dangerous Goods (DGR) refers to substances or items that pose a risk to health, safety, property, or the environment during transport. These goods are classified into nine categories, including flammable liquids, explosives, corrosive substances, and toxic materials. Due to the inherent hazards associated with their transportation, DGR handling requires strict adherence to international safety protocols, including proper labeling, packaging, and documentation.

Our DGR handling services cover a wide range of industries and ensure that your dangerous goods are shipped safely, efficiently, and in compliance with all applicable laws.

Our DGR Handling Process

  1. Consultation and Risk Assessment
    We start by assessing the nature of the dangerous goods you need to ship. Our DGR experts conduct a thorough risk assessment to determine the correct classification, packaging, labeling, and handling requirements based on the material’s specific properties.
  2. Compliance with Regulations
    Our team is well-versed in international regulations governing the transport of dangerous goods, including:
  • IATA DGR (International Air Transport Association for air freight)
  • IMDG Code (International Maritime Dangerous Goods for sea freight)
  • ADR (European Agreement concerning the international carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) We ensure full compliance with all local and international laws, reducing the risk of fines, delays, or shipment rejection.
  1. Proper Packaging & Labeling
    Dangerous goods require special packaging and labeling to prevent accidents or exposure during transport. We use certified materials to ensure the proper containment of hazardous goods and affix the appropriate labels and markings to indicate the risks associated with the cargo.
  2. Documentation and Permits
    Shipping dangerous goods requires accurate documentation. We prepare all necessary paperwork, including:
  • Dangerous Goods Declaration
  • Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
  • Packing Certificates
  • Permits for certain types of dangerous goods This ensures that your shipment meets regulatory requirements and speeds up the customs clearance process.
  1. Specialized Transportation
