*Classified under IMDG and applies only to oily rags. Oily rags are not covered by the regulations for land transport (ADR). Oily absorbents, sludge, filter cloths, shaker screens and oil filters are normally not subject to transport classification for either sea or land transport. Several EWC codes and transport classifications fall within this oil and grease waste fraction. Determine the correct classification for your waste using the safety data sheet or contact SAR for advice.
