DACHSER Chem Logistics in detail

Our standards meet the high requirements of the chemical industry

Our detailed, standardized policies for occupational safety, health, fire and environmental protection form the basis for fulfilling the high requirements of the chemical industry.
The safety regulations in our transport networks and for our warehouses go above and beyond the legal requirements.

We regularly carry out vehicle and loading checks as well as hazardous goods training. Load securing equipment is used as well as the provision of rescue material and personal protective equipment. Using the Safety & Quality Assessment for Sustainability (SQAS) we have defined uniform standards for transport and our warehouses, thus fulfilling the requirements of the chemical industry.

Centralized hazardous goods management as well as more than 200 in-house regional hazardous goods representatives ensure the observance of special regulations for shipments of hazardous goods.
