Requirements for UN2814 & UN2900
Category A infectious substances are defined as materials capable of causing permanent disability, life-threatening disease, or fatal illness in otherwise healthy humans or animals upon exposure. UN2814 designates infectious substances affecting humans, while UN2900 covers those affecting animals. Packaging for these materials must meet strict regulations from international bodies like IATA, ICAO, and ADR, ensuring safety during all phases of transport.
To comply with Category A requirements, packaging solutions for UN2814 and UN2900 substances must include several essential components:
• Primary and Secondary Containers: Primary containers are tightly sealed and designed to prevent leakage, while secondary containers provide additional containment for enhanced safety.
• Rigid Outer Packaging: An impact-resistant outer shell, such as metal or durable plastic, shields against external damage during handling and transport.
• Clear Labeling and Documentation: Packaging must include the appropriate "Infectious Substance" label and the UN2814 or UN2900 mark to identify the contents. Documentation confirming regulatory compliance is also required.
Please do not hesitate to contact us for questions about packaging for infectious substances.
