Sulphuric Acid

Stainless steel tanker trailers are our choice for transporting caustic substances.

Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion and can safely contain sodium hydroxide without reacting with it.

Chemical Capacity:

We ensure that the materials used in transport and storage of caustic are compatiable and resistant to corrosion. Stainless steel and high-density polyethlyne (HDPE) are common choices.

Proper Packaging:

Caustic should be transported in containers speficially designed for its safe transportation, such as drums or tanks.

Temperture Control:

We monitor and control the temperature of caustic during transporation, as high temperatures can increase its reacitvity.

Proper Ventilation: 

We ensure adequate ventiliation in transport vehicle to prevent the buildup of potentially hazardous fumes.

Avoid Contamination: 

Prevent cross contamination with incompatible substances. Keep sodium hydroxide away from acids and other reactive materials.

Training and Certification:

All personnel involved in the transporation and handling of caustic must be properly trained and certified in hazardous materials.

Protective Gear:

Drivers and handlers should wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, goggles, and chemical-resistant clothing.

Emergency Response Plan:

Develop and implement a comprehensive emergency response plan that includes procedures for spills, leaks and accidents involving caustic substances.

Spill Containment:

Comply with all federal, provincial, and local regulations governing the transporation of hazardous materials, including caustic substances.

Safety Inspections:

Regularly inspect and maintain transport equipment to ensure it meets standards and is in proper working condition.
