What is UN?
Since 1 January 1991, all dangerous goods in international marine and international or domestic air transport were required to be in packaging displaying the "UN" marking. The mark indicates that the packaging design has been tested in accordance with the recommendations of the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, which have been adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and the International Maritime Organisation (IMO).
Products certified to UN marking have to undergo stringent test requirements, consisting of a number of performance oriented tests related to packaging integrity such as drop test, stacking test, and hydrostatic pressure test for packaging in liquid service.
Our pails when filled with Dangerous Goods product had been tested to withstand a drop height of up to 2.0 meter without leaking. Our containers are able to withstand Hydraulic Pressure of up to 180kPa.
