Mission

Safety first. Always.

The dangerous goods industry is fragmented. Advisers work alone, the rules change every two years, and knowledge does not reach the people who load, drive and receive. Small companies cannot afford serious compliance and work “for the record” or with no adviser at all. Preventable incidents happen exactly there.

ADRplus exists to change this. The task is to turn ADR compliance from the scattered effort of each company into a shared capability of the industry. Safety must be within reach of a company with three trucks just as it is for an international group with a compliance department. Not the “minimum acceptable level”, but the real goal the rules were written for.

Safety within reach of every company

An adviser, documents, training and marking at a price a small carrier or a warehouse with occasional shipments can carry.

Knowledge reaches the people on site

Free tools, a knowledge base, a trainer and courses under chapter 1.3 — in the language of your team and without registration wherever possible.

One standard across Europe

Remote work and the platform give a company in any ADR country the same level of compliance.

The rules change. Safety does not.

A new edition of ADR comes out every two years. The goal stays the same — the dangerous goods arrive and the people come home.

History

Ten years of one practice

ADRplus grew out of the adviser’s daily work — every part of the system appeared as an answer to a task clients came with.

  1. 2015

    DGSA certificate. Practice begins in Latvia.

  2. 2020

    Printing of marking — artwork and labels for clients’ tasks, control of the whole production process.

  3. 2022

    First client outside Latvia for the DGSA service.

  4. 2025

    Clients in five EU countries.

  5. 2026

    The new adr.plus and the app.adr.plus platform — knowledge base, academy, shop and the company’s workplace.

  6. 2027

    A new edition of ADR — an updated course line and rule base by the time it enters into force.

Principles

Rules that are never broken

Six principles shape every decision — from an answer to a client to a line of code on the platform.

  1. 01

    Safety first

    Safety is chosen even when it is inconvenient, unprofitable or slow. Every decision passes one question — does it make the carriage safer.

  2. 02

    Primary sources or nothing

    Every statement leads to the text of ADR, a national act or an official clarification. There are no retellings and no “that is how it is done” here.

  3. 03

    Safety above the interests of the parties

    Rules, company interests and safety almost always coincide, and then compliance comes easily. Where they diverge, ADRplus chooses safety — that protects both people and the client’s reputation.

  4. 04

    Technology serves people

    The platform and tools remove routine so that people have time for what matters — safety. Decisions and responsibility always stay with the certified adviser.

  5. 05

    Privacy as architecture

    Data is collected in the minimum necessary amount, and protection is built into the system itself, not only into the text of a policy.

  6. 06

    Trust is earned through discipline

    Deadlines, documents and commitments are delivered as promised. A mistake, if it happens, is examined openly and corrected in the process, not hidden.

Vision

Where ADRplus is heading

By 2030 ADRplus is the reason dangerous goods transport in Europe has become safer. Fewer incidents, a higher level of compliance, better coordination between supervision and business.

Conscious work with dangerous goods

An appointed adviser, trained people and order in documents become the norm of the industry, not an exception for the few.

One standard across Europe

The platform and remote work make the same level of compliance available to a company in any country of the agreement.

Open dialogue with the authorities

Taking part in the development of the rules and tools that help inspectors and companies speak the same language.

The measure of ADRplus’s success is an industry where dangerous goods are carried consciously, and the rules are followed not out of fear of an inspection but because it is safer for everyone.
