Supplying biochemicals to Sweden
By sea, containers and LCL lots take roughly 26–34 days to Gothenburg and Stockholm (Norvik). Air cargo to Stockholm Arlanda (ARN) takes 3–5 days, which suits small and urgent packs. The relevant authority is ECHA (EU REACH & CLP). Our export desk lines up the COA, GHS SDS and shipping documents to match. Common grades for this division are Molecular biology grade, Cell-culture tested, Biotechnology grade and Electrophoresis grade.

Sweden applies EU REACH and CLP. Substances imported at 1 tonne or more per year must be registered by the EU importer or by an Only Representative for the Indian manufacturer, and labels and SDS must be in Swedish. Many chemical products must also be notified to the KemI products register by the Swedish importer. Medicinal active substances need GMP compliance and an EU written confirmation, with the Swedish Medical Products Agency supervising importers. Dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA DGR, and customs needs the importer's EORI number.
