Comprehensive Chemical Import Handling Services
Importing chemicals into Nigeria is a process laden with regulation, safety concerns, and meticulous documentation. At Cargoburg Logistics, we specialize in navigating this complexity, offering clients a turnkey solution from freight origin to final delivery. We take care of every step of the journey, including:
Freight Forwarding for Chemicals
We manage air and sea freight forwarding for various chemical types, ensuring safe packaging, proper labeling, and compliance with international transportation codes (including IMDG for sea freight and IATA for air freight). Whether shipping full container loads (FCL) or less-than-container loads (LCL), our logistics network ensures timely delivery with full visibility along the route.
Customs Clearance
Our experienced customs brokers work closely with regulatory authorities such as:
Nigeria Customs Service (NCS)
National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC)
Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON)
National Environmental Standards and Regulations Enforcement Agency (NESREA)
We handle documentation, classification under HS codes, permit applications, duty calculation, and ensure that your goods clear without delays or penalties. Cargoburg also assists clients in preparing Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), obtaining Import Permits, and filing Pre-Arrival Assessment Reports (PAAR).
Chemical Warehousing & Handling
Cargoburg offers specialized warehousing solutions for chemicals, including temperature-controlled storage and secure containment for hazardous materials. Our warehouses are designed to meet the highest safety standards, with fire suppression systems, spill containment zones, and trained handling personnel.
Inland Haulage
We offer dedicated chemical transportation across Nigeria using ADR-compliant trucks and well-trained drivers. Our haulage team is familiar with the proper handling of Class 1 to Class 9 hazardous goods and adheres strictly to Nigeria’s road safety and environmental regulations.
Marine and Offshore Logistics
For clients in the oil and gas sector, we offer chemical logistics support to offshore facilities. From solvents to cleaning agents and additives used in exploration and production, we provide packaging, labeling, loading, and maritime delivery through our marine logistics division.
