Packing Groups
Packing groups are used for the purpose of determining the degree of protective packaging required for Dangerous Goods during transportation.
- Group I: great danger, and most protective packaging required. Some combinations of different classes of dangerous goods on the same vehicle or in the same container are forbidden if one of the goods is Group I.
- Group II: medium danger
- Group III: least danger among regulated goods, and least protective packaging within the transportation requirement
