ADR

The regulations for the transport of dangerous materials known as ADR transport

Road transport of hazardous materials is highly regulated in Europe. It is governed by the European Agreement on the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road, which regulates international road transport by truck.
These regulations specific to the loading, transport and unloading of dangerous goods are as complex to decipher as they are restrictive.
This complexity is however necessary since it is a strict framework allowing companies to better anticipate the professional risks of activities related to the transport of dangerous products.
48 States have ratified this agreement throughout Europe.
