We wish to inform you that with immediate effect, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) that indicate storage temperature conditions will not be considered valid for Dangerous Goods cargo intended to be loaded in standard dry containers.

Please note the following important points:

• Temperature control requirements apply only to cargo transported in active temperature-controlled units (reefer equipment)
• Dry containers do not provide temperature regulation and are suitable only for cargo safe under normal ambient conditions
• Where storage temperature is mentioned in the MSDS, the cargo may be treated as requiring controlled conditions and refused for dry container loading

Accordingly, for DG cargo intended to move in dry containers, MSDS documents must clearly confirm suitability for transport under ambient conditions and must not include storage temperature control requirements.

Any shipment submitted with MSDS indicating storage temperature conditions will be subject to rejection for dry container loading to avoid vessel refusal, safety concerns, and operational delays.

We kindly request your cooperation in ensuring compliant documentation is provided at the time of DG submission to facilitate smooth cargo acceptance and carriage.

Thank you.
