Dangerous goods are substances and articles that during transportation may pose a threat to the life and health of people, the environment, or property. International transportation of dangerous goods is strictly regulated and requires a special approach. According to the international classification, there are 9 main hazard classes: explosives, gases, flammable liquids, flammable solids, oxidizing substances, toxic and infectious substances, radioactive materials, corrosive substances, and other dangerous substances.

At WestComTrans, we possess all the necessary competencies for the safe and efficient transportation of goods of any hazard class.
