Invented thirty years ago, pallet networks have transformed the movement of pallets in the UK.

Eight networks now dominate the market for next-day small consignment delivery of pallets, moving over 100,000 pallets every night. The Hazchem Network was founded in 2004 as the pallet network for chemicals. We are the only UK network for ADR.

Members communicate via a bespoke Vigo hub-interface in the cloud, with built-in resilience and back-up.

This enables full barcode-control of pallets, online customer portal access and track-and-trace facilities. Robert Symes heads up a central team of day and night operatives plus customer service, IT and accounts/ admin. There is full compliance back-up: Robert is a safety professional & chemistry graduate and there are further DGSAs on staff.

Chemicals

The hub exists primarily as an ADR network.

We carry classes 1.4S (limited), 2, 3, 4, 5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 8 and 9, plus complementary non-hazardous goods. We do not carry classes 1 (most), 6.2 or 7, nor fireworks, waste products or non-networkable goods such as cyanides. We don’t carry food products except those falling under ADR (eg additives) or food not for human consumption. We specialize in Dangerous Goods Transport.
