Follow these Guidelines to Ensure Your Compliance and Find the Products You Need Air Road Is Your Primary Container Certified 95kPa at both -40C and +55C?1,2 Is Your Primary Container Certified 95kPa at Ambient Temperature? Yes No Yes No You need Leak-Proof Secondary Packaging with Absorbent3 using... You need a Secondary Pouch Certified 95kPa at both -40C and +55C with Absorbent3 (seepage26) You need Leak-Proof Secondary Packaging with Absorbent3 using... You need a Secondary Pouch Certified 95kPa at Ambient Temperature with Absorbent3 (seepage26) A Bag (seepage25) + Absorbent3 (seepage25) A Bag (seepage25) + Absorbent3 (seepage25) Rigid Outer Packaging Required4 (seepage27) Rigid Outer Packaging Required4 (seepage27) Note 1. The 95kPa pressure differential test is required for either the primary or secondary container. If the primary container does not have this certification, or you are unsure, you should use a 95kPa certified secondary container. Note 2. The required pressure differential test is different for air and road transport. For road transport the test is conducted at ambient temperature. For Air transport it must also be conducted at both -40C and +55C. Note 3. Absorbent material must be capable of absorbing the entire contents of the primary containers. Note 4. For air transport, you must use a rigid outer box. Additional Notes - For road transport the rigid element of the packaging can be either the secondary or the outer packaging. - Multiple primaries will need separating to avoid damage and cross contamination.. Important - Always check with your transport provider to ensure they do not have any additional special conditions for transport of Biological Substances.
