For most regulated Industrial chemicals, tested and approved packaging is mandatory when shipping by road, sea, or air. The applicable UN packaging code and performance level are determined by the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS. Always confirm with your dangerous goods specialist or carrier whether your Specialty chemicals are fully regulated, limited quantity, or exempt before selecting packaging.
