Transporting moisture-sensitive specialty chemicals Requires Sealed primary containers, Barrier liners or overbags, and Desiccants inside cartons or overpacks. You should also indicate “Keep Dry” on labels and booking notes and steer clear of open or vented storage and transit equipment where humidity can build up.

The Exact UN packaging code and performance level Depend on the product’s hazard class and packing group shown on the SDS.
