Dangerous Goods - Packing Groups

Packing Groups

Packing groups are used for the purpose of determining the degree of protective packaging required for Dangerous Goods during transportation.

  • Group I: great danger, and most protective packaging required. Some combinations of different classes of dangerous goods on the same vehicle or in the same container are forbidden if one of the goods is Group I.
  • Group II: medium danger
  • Group III: least danger among regulated goods, and least protective packaging within the transportation requirement

Famous quotes containing the words packing and/or groups:

    “He had a wonderful talent for packing thought close, and rendering it portable.”
    —Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)

    “Women over fifty already form one of the largest groups in the population structure of the western world. As long as they like themselves, they will not be an oppressed minority. In order to like themselves they must reject trivialization by others of who and what they are. A grown woman should not have to masquerade as a girl in order to remain in the land of the living.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
