Special goods
that require special attention

The safety and protection during storage Various requirements have to be observed
of water-polluting liquids as well as the when handling water polluting liquids:
transport of dangerous goods require > officially approved storage tanks for
special care. A care which is guaranteed by water-polluting liquids with a flash point
its own type, type approval verifications >55 °C*
and transportation licences. > approved for transporting dangerous
goods of Packing Groups II or III –
according to the regulation for the
transportation of hazardous goods by

(GGVSEB)** – and the regulation for the
transportation of hazardous goods by sea
(GGVSee)
> approved for transporting dangerous
solid materials of Packing Groups II

Roth offers the appropriate solution.

Products include the Unitech tank, the
Multitech tank and the Service-Box.
