Supplying solvents (HPLC & GC) to Germany

Sea freight reaches Hamburg and Bremerhaven in about 24–30 days port to port. Urgent or small lots fly to Frankfurt (FRA) in 3–5 days. Import compliance for this category sits with ECHA (EU REACH & CLP), and we prepare the COA, SDS and commercial documents your broker needs. Common grades for this division are HPLC / gradient grade, LC-MS grade, Spectroscopy (UV/IR) grade and GC / headspace grade.

Chemical compliance in Germany

Authority	ECHA (EU REACH & CLP)
Seaports	Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Wilhelmshaven
Airports	Frankfurt (FRA), Leipzig/Halle (LEJ)
Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

German imports follow EU REACH and CLP. A substance arriving at 1 tonne or more per year must be registered by the EU importer or by an Only Representative acting for the Indian manufacturer, and labels and SDS must be in German. Medicinal active substances require GMP compliance and an EU written confirmation, with the competent Länder authorities and BfArM overseeing authorised importers. Dangerous goods must be packed and declared under IMDG or IATA DGR, and customs needs the importer's EORI number.

Questions

Solvents (HPLC & GC) for Germany

Can Zemixal deliver solvents (HPLC & GC) to Germany?

Yes. We ship by sea to Hamburg and Bremerhaven, 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 HPLC & GC solvents shipment to Germany?

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 Germany take?

Allow 24–30 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.

Which solvent grade should I use for LC-MS rather than HPLC-UV?

LC-MS methods need solvents with very low metal ion and non-volatile residue content, because sodium and potassium adducts and background ions show up in the mass spectrum. HPLC-UV methods care mainly about UV cut-off and particle content. Choose LC-MS grade for mass detection and gradient HPLC grade for UV work to balance cost and performance.

How should opened bottles of HPLC solvent be stored?

Keep bottles tightly capped, away from light and at room temperature, and avoid topping up reservoirs with fresh solvent over old. Acetonitrile and methanol absorb moisture and pick up contaminants from the air, and tetrahydrofuran can form peroxides once its stabiliser is used up. Date each bottle on opening and follow your lab's in-use period.
