Interworld Freight's hazardous storage in Chile

Chile's mining sector is the largest copper producer in the world, and the chemical inputs required for extraction, processing, and refining demand specialized hazardous materials storage. Interworld Freight provides compliant hazmat warehousing in the Región Metropolitana for all major hazard classifications.

We store materials across hazard classes including: Class 1 (Explosives), Class 2 (Gases), Class 3 (Flammable Liquids), Class 4 (Flammable Solids), Class 5 (Oxidizers), Class 6 (Toxins), Class 7 (Radioactive), Class 8 (Corrosives), and Class 9 (Miscellaneous Hazardous). Each class is stored in designated zones with appropriate containment, ventilation, and safety systems.

A facility built for safety and compliance

Our hazmat warehouse meets SERNAGEOMIN (Servicio Nacional de Geología y Minería) requirements and complies with Chilean Decreto Supremo 78 (DS 78) for hazardous substance storage and DS 43 for pesticide storage. NCh433 seismic-rated construction ensures structural integrity during seismic events, critical for facilities containing hazardous materials.

The facility features secondary containment systems including bunded floors, spill collection trenches, and sealed drainage. Explosion-proof electrical systems, forced ventilation, fire suppression rated for chemical fires, and emergency shower/eyewash stations are standard. Segregation walls separate incompatible hazard classes according to UN compatibility guidelines.

Why choose InterWF for hazmat storage in Chile?

Hazardous materials storage in Chile requires more than a facility with chemical containment. It requires a team that understands the regulatory landscape across SERNAGEOMIN, Servicio Nacional de Aduanas, municipal hazmat permits, and international transport regulations (IATA for air, IMDG for ocean). Interworld Freight provides that expertise with facility infrastructure to match.

Our location in the Región Metropolitana connects to mining operations in Antofagasta and Atacama via Ruta 5, to industrial zones across Santiago, and to export terminals at San Antonio and Valparaíso ports. Whether your chemicals arrive by ocean container or leave by domestic truck, we manage the logistics safely and compliantly.
