Hazardous Materials Packaging - Introduction

INTRODUCTION

Packaging for hazardous materials to be transported by aircraft has more restrictions than packaging for hazardous materials for road transportation. Hazardous materials are packed in “performance packaging” which consists of the inner receptacles, cushioning and absorbent materials and an outer packaging material. They have been designed, produced, tested and certified for different classes of hazardous materials and packaging groups. All hazardous materials packages have distinct UN markings on the packaging components and can be recognized by their unique identification numbers. UN symbol must be certified and printed on cartons by suppliers. Hand-drawn or paste on are not allowed. In addition, staffs in companies handling hazardous materials must be properly trained to ensure safety.
