Class 8 hazardous materials are corrosive substances that can cause severe damage to skin, metal, or other cargo. They include acids, bases, and other corrosives used across manufacturing, automotive, electronics, and chemical industries.
Shipping corrosives requires pre-shipment checks and strict documentation. Non-compliance leads to delays, fines or cargo rejection.
| Packing Group | Degree of Hazard | Criteria | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| I | High danger | Substances that cause full-thickness destruction of skin tissue within 60 minutes of exposure or severe corrosion to metals. | Concentrated sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid (≥70%) |
| II | Medium danger | Substances that cause partial destruction of skin tissue within 14 days or corrosion on metals exceeding defined thresholds. | Moderate acid or alkali solutions, diluted nitric acid (30–70%) |
| III | Low danger | Substances that cause mild irritation or corrosion after prolonged exposure; less severe than PG I or II. | Weak acids or alkalis, cleaning agents, mild detergents |
