What Are Hazardous Materials (Hazmat)?

Hazardous materials encompass a broad spectrum of substances that pose risks to health, safety, property, or the environment when transported, stored, or disposed of improperly. These include flammable liquids, gases, corrosives, explosives, toxic substances, and radioactive materials. The handling of such items is regulated by agencies like the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and other international bodies, which set strict standards to minimize risks and ensure public safety.
