Dangerous Goods Packaging for Lithium Battery Shipments

When it matters

It matters for regulated transport of cells, batteries, equipment, prototypes, damaged units, waste, or recalled products.

Key considerations

• DG packaging is a transport topic, not product certification.
• Requirements follow classification and mode.
• Damaged or prototype batteries need special review.

Project preparation

• Determine classification, route, quantity, and condition.
• Select packaging, marks, labels, and documents.
• Use trained personnel and retain evidence.
