Packaging

Our Expertise in Action

1. Classification and Identification

Every hazardous material must be correctly classified and identified according to U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. We start by reviewing the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for your material to determine its hazard class, UN/NA identification number, and packing group. This is the crucial first step that dictates all subsequent packaging and documentation requirements.

2. Performance-Oriented Packaging (POP)

We don't just use any box. We use certified, performance-oriented packaging (POP) that is specifically designed and tested to withstand the rigors of transportation. This includes:

• UN-Rated Packaging: We provide packaging with the appropriate UN marking (e.g., UN 4G/X12/S) that certifies it has passed rigorous tests for strength and integrity.

• Proper Inner and Outer Packaging: We select the correct inner containers, absorbent materials, and outer packaging to prevent leaks, spills, and dangerous reactions.

• Specialized Containers: We have access to a wide range of specialized containers, including drums, jerricans, and boxes, tailored to the specific needs of your material (e.g., corrosive liquids, flammable solids, or infectious substances).

• Shipment Tracking: We provide monitoring and tracking to give you peace of mind that your hazardous materials are on their way and will be delivered as planned.
