P650 PACKAGING

CO-VERTEC THE PERFECT SOLUTION FOR SAMPLE PACKING
The transportation of specimens for diagnosis or investigation is under the regulation of International Air Transport Association (I.A.T.A.) and Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (A.D.R.), a UN treaty that defines rules for packaging and transport.

Every organisation and company should ensure that the package complies with the standards defined by the UN guidelines. As per the UN guidelines, the biological substances assigned under UN3373 should be packed and transported as per the P650 Packaging instructions.

The UN3373 code is assigned to dangerous biological substances, including pathogen-infected substances, cultures, tissue, genetically modified organisms and other Category B Substances. The substances that belong to UN3373 must be packed as per a set of instructions called the P650 Packaging. The P650 Packaging instruction is defined by the Accord Dangereux Routier (ADR), the European agreement concerning the international carriage of dangerous goods via road. View More : co vertec

P650 Compliant Packaging Instructions

According to P650 Compliant Packaging instructions, the packaging materials should be made of good quality. The packaging should be strong enough to stand against shocks and physical threats during carriage, transhipment between vehicles, containers or warehouses and manual handling. Packaging should be constructed so that no loss of the content should occur in any damage or change in environmental conditions.

The P650 packaging of the Category B Specimen comprises three components – the primary receptacle, secondary packaging, and outer packing.
Primary Receptacle
The primary receptacle is a water-tight container that is leak-proof and holds the specimen. Apart from the specimen, a crucial component of the primary receptacle is the absorbent which prevents the leakage of the fluid specimen in case the primary receptacle is compromised.
Secondary Packaging
The secondary packaging is the covering that holds the primary package with ideal cushioning material. The secondary packaging is in such a way that the primary receptacle doesn’t break or get punctured or leak into the outer package.
Outer Package
The outer package is the final shipment package that displays the information necessary for transport, including the information of consigner and consignee with appropriate labels such as Dry Ice Label, Biohazard Label, UN3373 Label etc. The outside packaging should display the UN3373 label in contrasting colours, and the letters should at least be 6mm high.
Our UN3373 labels and mailbox are made in accordance with the P650 Packaging standards to make your shipment easy to pack and transport.
