We are changing the transportation policy! Now we also work with dangerous cargo. Dangerous cargo is a separate category of goods, which is included and prescribed in the Law of Ukraine No. 1644 on the transportation of dangerous goods. The category includes materials, products, substances that, due to their properties and external factors, can explode, damage buildings, start a fire, and cause any damage, damage to people and the environment. These goods include batteries.
Currently, there is the greatest demand in Ukraine for power banks, electric scooters and battery-powered equipment. Therefore, we have analyzed all requests and are starting to collect dangerous goods in separate containers. But there are some points that should be taken into account before purchasing dangerous goods:
What is MSDS - explained below.
MSDS is an accompanying document that contains information about the level of danger of a substance and possible effects on the human body and the environment during use, storage, production, transportation and disposal. The safety data sheet of chemical products also includes information on assistance measures in case of a dangerous situation.
An MSDS is drawn up for these product categories:
The company for which it is issued is responsible for its design and the information contained inside. Also, when preparing the MSDS, the CAS is additionally provided - the identifier of chemical compounds. This is a unique number that is assigned to an element, a mixture, in some cases to a whole separate class and is necessary to specify a component.
Not everything is so scary here. Usually, it is issued by the manufacturing company from which you purchase the product. The main thing before buying is to make sure that this document will be issued to you and that it is official, and not artificially made and illegal. Otherwise, you will remain with the goods somewhere on the coast of China, because they simply will not take them on board the ship.
But, if you are a manufacturer and plan to sell your dangerous product all over the world, then you will have to drag out the development of a passport. After all, each point of the certificate is very strictly regulated by law. The passport itself is drawn up on the basis of the following information:
Everything is simple and sad - there will be fines and very large ones. For example, for the transportation of undeclared batteries, which are dangerous goods, the fine can reach 100 thousand dollars. The amount of the fine depends on the volume of undeclared cargo and on the stage at which the violation was detected.
This type of cargo can be transported by airplane, that is air freight delivery or sea freight delivery. More than 3,000 dangerous goods can be transported by ship, slightly less by plane. But every day the number of units increases according to the speed of product updates in the manufacturer's country.
Also, it is important to know that product packaging is not a matter for carriers. This is the responsibility of the manufacturer. We provide a full list of transportation services and transport dangerous goods from China to Ukraine according to all rules. And if you need to repack the goods in the warehouse, we will do it. We are ready to advise you and help you receive or send your goods to any part of the world.
