Questions

Biochemicals for Canada

Do you ship biochemicals to Canada?
Yes. We ship by sea to Vancouver and Montreal, 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 biochemicals shipment to Canada?
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 ECCC & Health Canada (CEPA 1999, DSL/NDSL) is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to Canada take?
Allow 30–42 days for ocean transit or 4–6 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.
How are cold-chain biochemicals packed for international transit?
Products that need refrigeration travel in insulated shippers with frozen gel packs, and frozen items go on dry ice with the matching UN 1845 declaration. We pick express or air routes with short transit times and book shipments early in the week so that parcels do not sit in a warehouse over a weekend.
Are your buffers checked for heavy metals and UV absorbance?
Many biological buffers are listed with heavy metal limits and UV absorbance at 260 and 280 nm, because these affect protein and nucleic acid assays. The exact parameters vary by product and grade. Check the specification on the product page or request a sample COA through the quote panel before ordering.
