Frequently Asked Questions
What are considered dangerous goods?
Dangerous goods are those products or substances that, due to their chemical or physical characteristics, represent a risk to health, safety or the environment during transportation. These goods normally include materials such as explosives, gases, flammable liquids and solids, toxic or infectious substances, radioactive substances, corrosive substances and other products that may react in a dangerous manner.
The correct transport of these goods is crucial to avoid accidents, spills or explosions that could endanger people, vehicles and the environment. For this reason, there are international regulations, such as the ADR agreement (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road), which establishes strict requirements.
How are dangerous goods classified according to the UN?
The classification of dangerous goods, according to the UN, is organized in 9 main classes, which are based on the hazardous characteristics of each type of substance. In this way, it is possible to identify the specific risks of each type of goods and to establish the necessary measures for their correct and adequate transportation.
- Class 1: Explosives. Refers to substances that may explode or produce similar effects if mishandled.
- Class 2: Gases. Flammable, non-flammable and toxic gases.
- Class 3: Flammable liquids. Liquid substances which, by their nature and chemical composition, give off flammable vapors that may be harmful to health or the environment.
- Class 4: Flammable solids. Materials or products that can burn easily, posing a danger to the safety and well-being of people in the vicinity.
- Class 5: Oxidizing substances and organic peroxides. Those that can help other materials to combust are considered to fall into this category.
- Class 6: Toxic and infectious substances. Those that pose a danger to both human and animal health.
- Class 7: Radioactive substances. Those that give off a level of radiation that may consequently be harmful to health.
- Class 8: Corrosive substances. They can cause serious damage to living tissue and materials.
- Class 9: Miscellaneous dangerous goods. This group includes materials that are not included in any of the above groups, such as, for example, lithium batteries.
What is ADR (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road)?
The ADR (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) is an international treaty that regulates the transport of dangerous goods by road on the continent. This agreement determines a series of specific rules that must be complied with by vehicles, drivers and cargo, ensuring that the appropriate safety measures are used according to the type of material being transported.
The correct application of ADR is essential to avoid incidents such as leaks, explosions or contamination, which can have serious consequences. It also ensures that all countries adhering to the agreement follow the same standards, facilitating international trade and ensuring that transport logistics are smoother and safer.
