Fertiliser haulage

FIAS-registered fertiliser haulage

Bagged fertiliser transport by a FIAS-registered, Kiwa-audited haulier, from the ports or the plant to the merchant or the farm.

Why fertiliser moves under an assurance scheme

Fertiliser is not ordinary freight. Some products are regulated because of what they can be misused for, and everyone in the chain, from manufacturers and ports through to merchants, stores and hauliers, has to be able to show where a consignment came from, where it went and who handled it.

The Fertiliser Industry Assurance Scheme (FIAS) is the industry's answer to that. Launched in 2006 and run by the Agricultural Industries Confederation, it had government backing as an alternative to further legislation. It covers security, so product can only be used for legitimate purposes, safety for the public and the environment, and traceability from source to end user.

Delphic is a FIAS-registered transport operator, audited by Kiwa. For manufacturers, importers, merchants and blenders, this provides assurance that transport is managed to the scheme's published standards.

What we carry

  • Bagged fertiliser, in big bags and smaller bagged product, palletised
  • Collections from ports as well as plants and stores
  • Deliveries to merchants, blenders, stores and farms
  • Regulated products carried by ADR-trained drivers where the load calls for it

Our curtainsider fleet is suited to bagged and palletised fertiliser. We run curtainsiders, not tippers or bulk tankers, so loose bulk fertiliser is not something we can take. If it is bagged, we can move it.

Where we work

Cheshire, the North West and nationwide

Our Winsford base has access to the North West motorway network, supporting regional collections and nationwide fertiliser distribution. Fertiliser transport runs alongside our general UK haulage, so the traffic office that knows your delivery windows also knows where every truck is.

For seasonal peaks or regular contracted work, contact the traffic office early so we can discuss the capacity and delivery arrangements you need.

FAQs

Fertiliser haulage: common questions

Are you FIAS registered?
Yes. Delphic is registered under the Fertiliser Industry Assurance Scheme, the industry assurance system covering the security, safety and traceability of fertiliser through the supply chain. Our certification is audited by Kiwa.
Do you carry bagged or bulk fertiliser?
Bagged. Our fleet is curtainsider, so we carry palletised and bagged product, in big bags and smaller bagged goods. We do not operate tippers or bulk tankers, so loose bulk is not something we take.
Can you collect from the ports?
Yes. Port collections can be arranged as part of the service.
Do you carry ammonium nitrate and other regulated products?
Our drivers are ADR trained and we are FIAS registered, which covers the documentation and security obligations around regulated fertiliser products. Give the traffic office the product details and we will confirm.
What does FIAS registration actually mean for me?
It means your fertiliser moves with a haulier audited against the scheme's published standards, keeping the required records and following the agreed procedures for security, safety and traceability.
