In accordance with the requirements of ADR in section 1.10 (Security) for products classified as high risk, Chemical Express has taken steps to adopt a safety and security plan. The transport of dangerous goods requires a continuous regulatory, technological and training update that Chemical Express considers of primary importance and that allows it to be among the most important operators in the sector. The dangerous products transported belong to the following classes:

• Class 3 - Flammable liquids (solvents - resins - acrylates - paints)
• Class 4.1 - Flammable solids (Naphthalene)
• Class 6.1 - Toxic liquids (Perchlorethylene - acrylamide)
• Class 8 - Corrosives (Acetic acid, Sulfuric acid, Sulphonic acid, Acrylic acid)
• Class 9 - Various hazards (Environmentally polluting products, High temperature products)

Many chemical products, in order to be transported in the liquid state, need a temperature much higher than that of the environment; these are goods that, due to their physical-chemical characteristics, tend to solidify below their melting temperature, so it is necessary to heat them. or keep them above a certain temperature Chemical Express boasts many years of experience with this type of product. The maintenance or heating of the product is done either through the autonomous heating of the vehicle during transport on glycol, or at one of the numerous Chemical Express partner heating stations located throughout Europe, which provide this type of service, both with steam and with hot water, (depending on the instructions received from the customer).
