When it comes to the transportation or storage of chemical substances, don’t leave anything to chance. After all, the legal and logistical requirements for different chemicals are as specific as their individual characteristics. Our Rhenus chemical logistics experts take special care – also in terms of temperature control. Thus, we ensure that the flammable, toxic or environmentally hazardous properties do not pose a risk to people, the environment or physical assets.
We organize all pre-carriage, main carriage and on-carriage accurately so that your sensitive freight moves through the entire transport chain in compliance with all regulations – from chemical storage within our global network to chemical transport by road, rail, water and air.

This comprehensive 4PL service provides an overview of all carriers and transport steps for your shipment. On top of this, we can add additional value by handling tasks such as labeling, repackaging and sampling.

In the field of chemical logistics, we transport and store hazardous substances, chemical raw materials, finished products, intermediate products and special chemicals. These can be liquid, solid or gaseous substances such as acids, bases, solvents, lubricants, plastics, paints and varnishes or pharmaceutical products.
In order to counteract the flammable, toxic or environmentally hazardous properties of chemical substances, we not only provide suitable packaging and cargo securing, but also pay particular attention to their specific requirements. When carrying out chemical storage or transport tasks, for example, we use special vehicles with cooling modules or air-conditioned warehouses. Of course, we transport and store the various substances separately to avoid undesired reactions.
Generally, our experts at Rhenus are trained to move and store goods of all hazardous goods classification types. Especially for specific substances, such as particularly explosive or radiation-contaminated substances, close coordination is required to determine how Rhenus can implement your request. Our experts would be happy to help you find the right logistics solution.
Thanks to our many years of experience with the legal requirements of chemical logistics, we are experienced in obtaining the relevant permits from the authorities, and always striving to substantiate the quality of our services with certifications. We would be happy to discuss with you individually how we can meet the requirements of your goods for customized chemical storage and transportation.
