Many shippers believe that simply using UN-certified packaging ensures compliance and safety, but that’s only half the story. The truth is, improper assembly of UN packaging is one of the most common and dangerous mistakes in the shipping of dangerous goods. Even if you’re using the right UN box, failure to follow the manufacturer’s assembly instructions can result in package failure, rejected shipments, regulatory fines, or worse, serious accidents during transport.
UN packaging is rigorously tested under strict conditions, but its certification is only valid when it’s assembled exactly as tested. That includes correct closure methods, proper inner packaging, and the use of required components such as tape, partitions, cushioning or absorbents. One missed step can void the certification entirely.
