DANGEROUS GOODS BOXES FOR COURIER NETWORKS – UN APPROVED 4GV PACKAGING
DG Solutions supplies a full range of UN approved 4GV fibreboard boxes specifically suited for courier networks including NZ Post, DHL, FedEx, NZ Couriers, Post Haste Group, Urgent Couriers and other domestic and international carriers.
When dangerous goods exceed certain thresholds, they must be packed in accordance with the relevant packing instruction (IATA, IMDG or NZS 5433) which often requires UN approved packaging.
Our 4GV cartons are designed for:
- Courier and small parcel networks
- Air and sea dangerous goods shipments
- Export consignments requiring full compliance
Whether you need a compact box for smaller shipments or a large heavy duty option for bulk consignments, we have the right size to keep your goods secure and compliant.
WHY DO COURIERS REQUIRE UN APPROVED PACKAGING?
A 4GV box is a UN specification outer packaging designed to safely transport dangerous goods using a variety of approved inner packagings.
For courier shipments, this is critical.
Once your shipment exceeds certain quantity allowances:
- Standard cartons are not accepted by courier networks
- Carriers like NZ Post, DHL and FedEx require compliant packaging
- You must follow the applicable packing instruction (e.g. IATA DGR)
The “V” in 4GV means:
- It can hold different inner packagings and configurations
- It is performance tested (drop tested, stack tested)
- It is suitable for multiple dangerous goods classes
This makes 4GV packaging ideal for real world courier shipments, where flexibility and compliance are both required.
