Introduction:


The main purpose of all types of packings used for chemicals are to protect the users and the enviroment from possible hazards. Only properly packed chemicals can be safely transported and stored by the users.

According to IATA regulations the dangerous chemicals can only be transported if they are packed in UN (United Nations)approved packings. During transportation and storing of dangerous chemicals theultimate goal is to pack them in a manner to prevent the escape of the chemical from the packing. This task can only be achieved by utilizing UN (United Nations)approved packings. As a general ruleall kinds of UN (United Nations)approved packings must be certified by a national competent authority.This involves testing the packings against the approtiate UN (United Nations)specifications to ensure the suitability for the carriage of dangerous chemicals. All UN (United Nations) approved packings must carry 2 different (for railroad & highway and forseaway & airway) marking guides as shown below.
