All of the regulatory bodies, including <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/regulations\/tdgcl\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">TDG<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/regulations\/49cfr\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">49CFR<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/regulations\/air\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">IATA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/regulations\/imdg\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">IMDG code<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, contain very detailed information on which type of inner and outer packaging is allowed for your specific dangerous goods, as well as how much is allowed in your inner and outer packaging. Seems simple enough, right? Well, if you are shipping dangerous goods by ocean, there is another piece of the puzzle you may need to add per the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/publications\/imdg-code\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">IMDG code<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> called packing provisions. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What are Packing Provisions?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Part 3 of the IMDG Code strategically lays out the dangerous goods list. Like IATA, 49CFR, and TDG, this list contains information on the shipping name, UN number, hazard class, packing group, and other pertinent information that is essential when shipping dangerous goods. If you go to column 8, it will list codes that either begin with a \u201cP\u201d or an \u201cLP.\u201d The LP, in this case, means large packaging, and the P means packages other than large packaging. A numerical code will then follow, which you will look up in chapter 4.1.4 of the IMDG Code. Using UN 2014 as an example, the 8th column lists P504 as the packing instruction. In this case, we would go to P504 in chapter 4.1.4, which lists all of the acceptable <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/packaging\/4g-boxes-combination\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">combination<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/packaging\/steel-single-packaging\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">single packaging<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, including various drums and 4G packaging, along with the net mass and capacity limits. In addition, it lists the acceptable inner packaging such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/packaging\/glass-shippers\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">glass<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/packaging\/plastic-shippers\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">plastic<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecompliancecenter.com\/ca\/product-category\/packaging\/metal-shipping-kits\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">metal<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. This is where packing provisions may come in. In column 9 of the dangerous goods list labeled \u201cProvisions,\u201d you may see a code that begins with \u201cPP\u201d or \u201cL.\u201d \u201cPP\u201d means packaging provisions, and \u201cL\u201d is for large packaging specifically. In the case of UN 2014, there is a PP 10. Remember that the dangerous goods list referred us to P504 in chapter 4.1.4 for UN 2014. In that same section at the bottom, under Special Packaging Provisions, you will find PP10, which says for UN 2014, the packaging shall be vented. This is very important; if you don\u2019t notice or follow this packing provision, you would not be in compliance with the regulations and may be subjected to delays or other potential issues. For example, in this case, you can use a 4G box with a glass container as your inner packaging; however, per the Special Packing Provision, you must use some type of vented cap on that glass bottle to remain in compliance with the IMDG regulations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Are There Always Packing Provisions?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The short answer is no. You may be shipping dangerous goods that don\u2019t require any packing provisions. The way to determine this is to look in column 9 of the dangerous goods list. If you see a \u201c-\u201d there are no packing provisions listed for your dangerous good. However, you must make sure that you still follow the packing instructions listed in column 8 to remain in compliance with the IMDG regulations.
