What does UN specification packaging code indicate?

• A. It shows packaging that has been tested and meets UN performance standards.
• B. It indicates packaging is made in a UN-approved factory.
• C. It indicates packaging is for household use only.
• D. It is a code for color of packaging.

Answer: (A)

UN specification packaging code indicates that the packaging has been tested and meets UN performance standards for transporting dangerous goods. This means the packaging type has undergone the required performance tests (such as leakproofness, drop/impact, internal pressure, and stacking as applicable) and is approved for use with hazardous materials. It does not indicate where the packaging was made, nor is it a color code or a designation for household use.
