Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

Every Australian business that imports industrial chemicals must register with AICIS and categorise each introduction, and substances not on the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals need assessment or reporting. APIs and therapeutic goods fall under the TGA. Precursors, narcotics and some psychotropics need import permits from the Office of Drug Control. SDS must meet the Model WHS Regulations, which the importer usually prepares or reviews. Dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA rules, and ECTA preference needs a certificate of origin.

Questions

Inorganics & Metals for Australia

Can Zemixal deliver inorganics & metals to Australia?
Yes. We ship by sea to Melbourne and Sydney (Port Botany), by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.
Which documents come with a inorganics & metals shipment to Australia?
Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to AICIS (Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme) is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to Australia take?
Allow 22–32 days for ocean transit or 3–6 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.
What does 'trace metals basis' mean on an inorganic product?
It means the stated purity is calculated from the measured levels of metallic impurities, usually by ICP-MS or ICP-OES, rather than from a direct assay of the main component. Non-metallic impurities such as oxygen, carbon or moisture may not be included. Check the COA to see which elements were tested and their limits.
Can metals be cut or sized to my drawing?
Many foils, rods, plates and targets can be supplied in custom dimensions, thicknesses or diameters. Send a drawing or the key measurements with the tolerance you need. We will confirm feasibility, lead time and the purity available in that form before quoting, since some shapes are only made from certain grades.
