Dangerous Goods According to ADR

This information is only an overview of ADR and its requirements for the transport of dangerous goods. Complete terms and regulations can be found with the respective carrier.

Proper documentation and training are essential for the safe and efficient handling of dangerous goods during transport. In Sweden, road transport of dangerous goods is regulated by ADR (Accord Dangereux Routier), which aims to minimize the risk of accidents and damage to people, property, and the environment.

The Shipper’s Responsibility According to ADR

To comply with ADR regulations, the shipper must provide correct documentation and information when transporting dangerous goods. This includes:

  • Ensuring that the goods are correctly classified, packaged, marked, and labeled according to ADR.
  • Preparing a transport document that meets ADR requirements.
  • Providing any necessary written safety instructions, if required.
