Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
64430.00 Hypernic, Osage Orange, Quercitron or Redwood:

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Match packaging to form: use UN-rated drums or pails for liquids, fiber drums with poly liners for powders; add absorbent and overpack if there’s spill risk from dye concentrates.
  2. Declare NMFC 64430 on the BOL and mark as hazardous; attach the SDS and include the 24/7 emergency contact to meet carrier hazmat intake requirements.
  3. Prevent staining and incompatibilities: line pallets, wrap securely, and segregate away from oxidizers, food items, and light-colored goods during LTL consolidation.
  4. Even without a published class range, capture dimensions and weight for rating and provide the proper item description so carriers can quote hazmat accessorials accurately.

Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.

Business Value

  • Accurate NMFC usage reduces reclass fees and avoids surprise hazmat surcharges, improving landed cost predictability for dye and colorant shipments.
  • Right-sized, UN-rated packaging minimizes spill cleanup charges and claim exposure from highly staining natural extracts.
  • Clean, compliant paperwork speeds carrier acceptance and keeps hazmat freight moving, protecting production timelines at tanneries, textile mills, and wood finishers.
  • Proper segregation and containment protect other freight, preserving carrier relationships and limiting indirect costs from contamination incidents.
