The UN Certificate is an official document certifying the compliance of packaging materials with international safety standards for transporting dangerous goods. This certification ensures that the packaging has undergone specific tests for durability, leakage prevention, and safety requirements. UN certification is essential for meeting global regulations such as (ADR, RID, IMDG and others), ensuring the safe transportation of hazardous materials.
The codes on the certificate provide detailed information such as the type of packaging, the material used in its production, the packaging group it belongs to, and the parameters tested. These details allow for the correct selection of packaging for dangerous goods and ensure secure transportation. Each type of packaging is subjected to physical and chemical resistance tests to confirm its suitability for the specific materials being transported.
The UN certificate is recognized nationally and internationally as a symbol of product safety. The certificate includes a unique approval number issued by the manufacturer or certification body and the year of production, ensuring full traceability of the packaging.
