Highly explosive, flammable, poisonous, radioactive and corrosive chemicals and goods are likely to cause serious accidents if not properly handled, especially during their transportation.
Such goods require precautionary measures to minimize the risks inherent in their production, transportation and storage. And the authorities and logistics companies need to attach great importance to their emergency response systems.
Given the high risks that accompany such products, security, not economic interests, should always be the first priority. Many developed countries have strict regulations covering every link in the chain, from the classification of dangerous goods to the requirements for their transportation.
