Chemicals & Fertilizers
Reagents, urea, NPK — moved safely, on time.
Chemicals and fertilizers are precision freight — mining reagents keep the smelters running, fertilizer keeps the farms productive, and every load carries regulatory weight. Select a category to see what we move and the trailers we move it on.
Cyanide, sulphuric acid, activated carbon, flocculants, lime and flotation chemicals — the consumables that keep the smelters and processing plants running.
Typical trailers
Liquid Chemical Tanker (ADR)F21 Flatdeck (ADR)ZRP escort (cyanide)
Urea, ammonium nitrate, NPK compounds, lime and gypsum — bulk and bagged, with capacity reserved ahead of the planting season.
Typical trailers
Moving Floor (bulk)T21 Tautliner (bagged)F21 Flatdeck (ammonium nitrate)
Chlorine, caustic soda, solvents, acids and water-treatment chemicals — moved under ADR with full placarding and spill response.
Typical trailers
Liquid Chemical Tanker (ADR)F21 Flatdeck secured (ADR)ZRP escort (chlorine)
Pesticides, herbicides and crop-protection products — packaged class 6.1 goods handled to ADR and ZEMA standards.
Typical trailers

Hazardous classes (cyanide, acids, chlorine) require ADR-certified drivers, placarding and — for some — ZRP escort. See Project & Special Cargo.

Compliance & safe handling
Classification & documentation
- ADR classification — every load classified by UN number and hazard class, with correct placarding on all four sides and orange hazard panels front and rear
- ADR-certified drivers — trained in the specific hazard class, carrying MSDS for every substance in the cab
- ZEMA permits — Environmental Management Agency permits for hazardous chemical movement
- ZIMRA declarations — import documentation per substance; ECTS sealing for transit loads
Escort, season & safety
- Escort requirements — cyanide and chlorine run with ZRP escort; explosive-grade ammonium nitrate follows explosives protocol (Explosives Board permit, armed escort)
- Seasonal fertilizer surge — demand peaks Aug–Nov ahead of planting; we reserve bulk capacity early to guarantee on-farm delivery before the rains
- Spill response — every hazmat load carries a class-appropriate spill kit, fire suppression and emergency response instructions
