The fine chemicals industry is characterized by the production of highly specialized compounds, many of which are sensitive and require extremely careful handling. This category includes phytosanitary products, such as pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides.

These products are very relevant because of their impact on agriculture and crop protection. As these are chemical substances that are, in many cases, potentially hazardous, monitoring during the logistical process of storage, distribution and transport must be very safe in order to protect the environment and human health.

The logistics chain for phytosanitary products includes the customs clearance of the goods. One of the most critical aspects of transporting fine chemicals is to ensure that the goods are not damaged or tampered with during transit. Companies that specialize in the logistics of this type of phytosanitary elements must comply with strict safety standards, both in storage and transportation. These standards include temperature controls, protection against light exposure, and optimum humidity conditions, among others. In addition, product traceability – the ability to know the status and location of products throughout the supply chain – is key to ensuring that products arrive at their destination in perfect condition.

In addition to complying with regulations such as the Spanish Royal Decree 285/2021, of April 20, they must also ensure that phytosanitary products are properly inspected to ensure that they do not pose a risk when entering new territories. An error in documentation or lack of proper supervision could result in product retention or even destruction.
