ADR 8.1.5 equipment kits

ADR equipment, kitted per vehicle, tracked per driver

The ADR 8.1.5 equipment list, assembled into a single cab-ready kit. PPE per crew member, substance-specific add-ons by danger label, TREM cards in the right language and edition — all tied to the vehicle and driver in your Fleet Vault.

  • ADR 8.1.5 base kits in stock
  • PPE assembled per named driver
  • Drain seals, masks and shovels by danger label
  • Current-edition TREM cards
  • Eye-wash with shelf-life tracking
  • Audit-ready expiry log per vehicle

The cab kit that DVSA won't argue with

ADR 8.1.5 looks straightforward until you have 40 vehicles, six drivers each, four substance classes between them, and a quarterly turnover on PPE. Build the kit yourself and something always gets missed — usually the eye-wash that's three months past its expiry. FleetPrint+ holds the full 8.1.5 catalogue against each vehicle, with substance-specific add-ons driven by the danger labels you've declared.

PPE per driver, not per vehicle

Sizing matters. Generic large gloves don't fit every hand, and goggles over prescription glasses need a different frame. Drivers in your Fleet Vault carry their PPE profile (glove size, lens type, vest size) so replacement kits arrive labelled with the driver's name and the right fit. New starters get a starter pack the day they're added to the system.

TREM cards, in the right language, in the cab

Written instructions must be present in a language each crew member can read. With a multinational driving pool that's not always English. We hold the current ECE edition in every official ADR language and ship the right edition to each cab — and we re-issue the lot when ECE publishes an update, so you don't have to chase it.

Frequently asked questions

What equipment is required on an ADR vehicle?
ADR 8.1.5 lists the equipment that must be on board every dangerous-goods transport unit: two wheel chocks, two self-standing warning signs, eye-rinsing liquid (except for class 1 and 2), high-vis vest, intrinsically safe pocket lamp per crew member, and a pair of protective gloves and goggles per crew member. Substance-specific additions (drain seals, emergency masks, shovels) depend on the danger labels carried.
What are TREM cards?
Written instructions in writing (often called TREM cards) are a 4-page document required in the cab in a language each driver can read. They cover the actions the crew must take in the event of an incident with the dangerous goods carried. Updates are published by ECE/UNECE periodically — FleetPrint+ ships the current edition and tracks the version per cab.
Do drivers need their own PPE or is it per vehicle?
ADR 8.1.5.2 requires PPE per crew member, not per vehicle. A two-up cab needs two sets of gloves, goggles, vests and lamps. We supply kits by driver name from your Fleet Vault so swaps are tracked.
How quickly can you despatch a full ADR kit?
Standard ADR 8.1.5 equipment kits ship next working day from order. Substance-specific add-ons (toxic-load masks, acid-resistant gloves, foam concentrate) ship in 48 hours. Same-day courier is available on a depot-by-depot basis.
