UN licensing & testing.

We design, test, license and produce packaging to UN standards and issue your certificate once approval is granted, with no renewal fees.

What is UN licensing & testing?

Rigorous testing for safe transit.

UN approved packaging must pass rigorous tests to be licensed to carry dangerous goods safely in transit.

Tests vary with the packaging material and the contents. Mega-Pak has access to some of the world's best licensing and testing facilities, so our dangerous goods packaging is of the highest quality and fully within the regulations.
