Scottsdale, AZ — August 19, 2025 — RateLinx, a market leader and Gartner top-ranked TMS solution, multicarrier parcel management, and freight audit solution, today announced a strategic integration with DGeo, Labelmaster’s Dangerous Goods Packaging, Technology and Services Division. DGeo is an industry-leader in dangerous goods technology and RateLinx will be using its DGIS HAZMAT shipping software to enable real-time hazmat validation and compliance automation directly within ShipLinx TMS. This partnership gives shippers a centralized, scalable and powerful platform to manage the transportation of hazardous materials (HAZMAT) in full compliance with 49 CFR, IATA, IMDG, and other global regulatory frameworks.
From manufacturing and chemicals to pharmaceuticals, automotive, and electronics, hazmat shipments are an essential but high-risk part of the global supply chain. Without proper classification, documentation, packaging, labeling, and placarding, shippers risk costly DOT/PHMSA violations, shipment rejections, delivery delays, environmental hazards, and damaged brand trust.
Integrating RateLinx’s ShipLinx TMS with DGeo’s DGIS software empowers shippers to manage hazmat compliance and shipping performance all within one easy-to-use transportation platform—cutting labor costs and reducing freight spend. Here’s how:
- Simplified Compliance, Reduced Labor – DGIS automatically validates shipments against current global hazmat regulations (49 CFR, IATA, IMDG, TDG, ADR, AFMAN), eliminating manual lookups while reinforcing DG training. This minimizes errors, speeds up hazmat processing, and frees up staff for higher-value work.
- Smarter, More Efficient Shipping– DGIS helps identify cost-saving options like exempted or partially regulated shipments, while enabling faster handling of overpacks and complex packaging—all within ShipLinx TMS. Shippers can process hazmat as easily as non-regulated freight.
- Lower Costs, Better Results – The combined solution reduces compliance risk, improves On-Time, In-Full (OTIF) performance, and enhances customer experience. It’s a smarter way to ship dangerous goods—faster, cheaper, and fully compliant.
“Hazmat shipping errors aren’t just compliance issues—they’re operational risks that disrupt OTIF delivery performance, drive up accessorials, and hurt Customer Experience,” said Shannon Vaillancourt, CEO of RateLinx. “This integration with Labelmaster enables our customers to manage hazmat shipments as confidently as non-regulated freight—without toggling between systems or introducing manual steps that lead to errors.”
“DGIS is built to help customers keep up with complex global hazmat regulations in addition to increasing their shipping efficiency and reducing risk. When embedded in ShipLinx TMS, DGIS enables automatic validation against current DG requirements at the shipment level—giving users a simplified, compliant process that’s fast, auditable, and fully integrated,” said Brandon Yost, vice president of Software at DGeo.
With this enhancement, ShipLinx TMS provides complete multimodal shipping support (parcel, LTL, TL, and international), while giving EHS, compliance, and logistics teams the tools to ensure hazmat shipments meet all domestic and international standards—reducing risk, increasing speed to ship, and strengthening the customer experience.
