Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

France applies EU REACH and CLP, so any substance imported at 1 tonne or more per year needs registration by the EU importer or by an Only Representative for the Indian manufacturer. SDS and labels must be in French. Active substances destined for medicines need GMP compliance and an EU written confirmation, and ANSM supervises authorised importers. Dangerous goods are packed and declared under IMDG or IATA DGR, and customs clearance requires the importer's EORI number.

Questions

Biochemicals for France

Can Zemixal deliver biochemicals to France?
Yes. We ship by sea to Le Havre and Marseille-Fos, 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 France?
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 ECHA (EU REACH & CLP) is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to France take?
Allow 18–27 days for ocean transit or 3–5 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.
