What is ADR Transport?

ADR stands for the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (from the French title L’Accord européen relatif au transport international des marchandises Dangereuses par Route). This agreement classifies all hazardous substances produced globally, categorizes them into 13 hazard classes, and sets forth the detailed conditions under which the transportation of these materials is permitted.

In common terms, ADR transport refers to the transportation of dangerous goods that require special precautions and compliance with specific safety standards. Hazardous materials (commonly referred to as “ADR goods”) include chemical, flammable, explosive, and toxic substances.

What are the Requirements for ADR Transport?

The road transport of hazardous materials is a process that requires specialized knowledge. The strict requirements, stringent regulations, and risks associated with transporting ADR goods mean that only well-prepared transport and logistics companies can undertake this task.

We ensure the transport of ADR goods in compliance with applicable national and international standards, combining risk minimization inherent to the nature of the operation with the highest service efficiency.

We employ an experienced ADR advisor and work with drivers who are trained, properly equipped, and certified in accordance with legal regulations to transport hazardous materials. Our warehouse staff are also trained in the storage, handling, and loading of ADR goods, ensuring compliance with occupational safety requirements.
