26. PACKAGING Dangerous goods are safe in the transport system as long as they are contained in a suitable device. This may be a package, intermediate bulk container IBC, large packaging, or tank. The transport rules demand that UN authorised packages are used for the carriage of most dangerous substances. These packs are identified by the UN packaging mark as shown on the containers opposite.

27. MARKS AND LABELLING Packages, IBCs, large packagings, freight containers, tanks and vehicles caring dangerous goods must carry warnings to indicate their potential dangers.
