UN Approved Salvage Drums

Salvage packaging are special packaging into which damaged, defective, leaking or on-conforming packages or dangerous goods that have spilled or leaked, are placed for purposes of transport for recovery or disposal.

These salvage packaging may be used provided that appropriate measures are taken to prevent excessive movement of the damaged or leaking packages within the salvage drum and that when the salvage packaging contains liquids, sufficient absorbent material is added to eliminate the presence of free liquid. Damaged, defective or leaking packages of dangerous goods of Classes 1, 2 and 7 and Division 6.2 (other than Clinical waste and Medical waste falling under UN3291) must not be transported in salvage packaging.

At this moment CarePack Holland has available metal (1A2T) and plastic (1H2) drums. The drums are suitable for packing from 5 litre up to 200 litre drums.

Please, let us know if you need any support with choosing the correct packaging for your shipments.
