UN Approved 4G Cardboard Boxes
Our UN Approved 4G Cardboard Boxes are specifically designed for the secure packaging and transportation of hazardous materials using tested combination packaging. Manufactured from strong corrugated fibreboard, these cartons are UN-certified and fully compliant with international regulations for road, air, and sea transport.
UN-Compliant Fibreboard Cartons for Dangerous Goods Packaging
Each 4G box is tested with specific inner containers—such as bottles, jars, or tins—and certified as a complete packaging system. This makes them ideal for companies that need a pre-approved, regulation-compliant solution for shipping dangerous goods like chemicals, flammable liquids, or toxic substances.
Our 4G boxes are part of a combination packaging system, meaning they must be used with the designated inner packaging they’ve been tested with. This guarantees performance, safety, and UN compliance, removing the guesswork from hazardous goods shipping.
Key features include:
• Heavy-duty fibreboard construction for impact and compression resistance
• Pre-tested UN-approved packaging combinations
• Suitable for Packing Groups I, II, and III (depending on box and inner contents)
• Clearly printed UN certification codes
• ADR, IATA, and IMDG compliant
These cartons are ideal for use in chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, laboratories, and distribution centres handling regulated materials.
