There are different types of goods that can be classified according to their nature and state of production.
Raw materials
Cotton or wood, as examples of raw materials, are materials extracted from nature that will later be transformed into a consumer good.
Intermediate goods
Wood transformed into planks is an intermediate good that has undergone an initial industrial process, but can still be transformed into finished products, such as furniture.
Finished goods
Also known as consumer, are those products that can already be destined for the final customer. As a raw material, clay can be converted into a finished good such as pots.
Perishable goods
Such as food or medical products, have an expiration date. They have a short life cycle and are susceptible to environmental conditions.
Non-perishable goods
Non-perishable goods, on the other hand, have a longer life cycle. In this case, canned or packaged foods (such as legumes) do not decompose as long as they are unopened.
Dangerous goods
Explosive materials or flammable liquids that are dangerous, i.e. materials or substances that may pose a risk to health or the environment. Their transport and handling is subject to regulations.
Waste
Waste are those materials whose conservation is uneconomical and unhealthy because they have already fulfilled their mission. Its management or treatment is essential for economic and ecological reasons and includes different activities, including its transportation.
In conclusion, it is worth remembering that at Subitur Transports we are prepared to respond to the transportation needs of our customers and that we also have different certifications that make it possible for us to carry out the transportation of waste.
