Transport and distribution of dangerous chemicals
We are an industrial transport company specialized in dangerous goods commonly known as ADR transport (the UN treaty governing international carriage of dangerous goods by road). Tell us what you need and we’ll do everything necessary to make it happen.
For us it is of vital importance to ensure that all shipments we carry out are properly managed and in compliance with current legislation. We have an established team of professionals who are able to certify that your goods will travel in the best possible hands and will reach their destination in optimal condition.
We will manage your consignment as efficiently as possible, taking into account the following factors:
- The product to be transported
- The UN number
- The type of container and packaging
- The needs of the recipient and the unloading requirements
- The documentation and labelling required

Conveying Liquids (Transfer Service)
We can transport liquids and transfer them to a tank at your customer’s premises. We have over 15 years of experience in this type of delivery, with a range of customers and a number of different methods.
This type of transfer can be very complex and can be done with a variety of different pumps, or by gravity. Our personnel have the highest levels of certification and training to carry out these operations safely and to minimise the risk of accidents.
Once we receive the order, we can co-ordinate the transfer directly with the appropriate staff and/or recipients. BDtrans has all the necessary documentation in place (both our own and that of our collaborators) to permit us to transfer the product to any recipient and to access any type of facility that meets the safety and administration requirements. We have never had an incident involving the transfer of liquids.
Safety comes first for us, so before a transfer is made, a control document is completed by which the facilities and tanks are checked. This checking process is used to assess existing safety levels and to determine whether or not the transfer can be carried out.
The types of transfer we carry out are:
- Liquid transfer by gravity
- Liquid transfer using a compressor
- Liquid transfer using an electric pump
- Liquid transfer using nitrogen
Groupage Service
We offer groupage services for customers who need to transport different quantities, grouping the goods of several customers together and thereby ensuring the same value for money. Within this service, we offer three options:
- Door to door: We pick up the goods at your facility and send them to the destination at the time agreed, no questions, no excuses, all to schedule
- Express Service: We adapt to your needs and your timescales, facilitating direct deliveries with no delays.
