Why is UN certification so important for the transport of dangerous goods?

Posted 2024-11-08

At Emballator, we place great importance on providing first-class packaging solutions that guarantee both safety and quality. A fundamental aspect of ensuring the safe transport of hazardous materials is UN certification, a global standard that ensures compliance with international safety regulations.

What is UN certification?

UN certification, established by the United Nations, is a globally recognized standard for the packaging and labeling of dangerous goods. UN-certified packaging is essential to minimize risks during the transport of hazardous materials, prevent accidents, and ensure the safety of people, property, and the environment.

Why is UN certification important?

It cannot be emphasized enough that UN certification is a prerequisite for delivering dangerous goods. It ensures that hazardous materials are clearly marked and packaged according to international guidelines, which is crucial for safe logistics. This standard helps to:

Prevent accidents: By providing UN-certified packaging, the risk of accident-related leaks during transport is reduced.

Ensure compliance: Adhering to UN regulations is necessary to meet international rules, which is a requirement for global trade within the UN framework.

Protect people and the environment: Properly certified packaging minimizes the risk of exposure to hazardous substances, protecting both people and the environment.
