What Is a UN-Rated Plastic Pail?

 A UN-rated plastic pail is a container that has been tested and certified to meet the performance standards established by the United Nations for the safe transportation of hazardous materials.These containers undergo rigorous testing to evaluate their ability to withstand conditions that may occur during shipping and handling, including:
  • Drop testing
  • Leakproof testing (when applicable)
  • Stack load testing
  • Vibration testing
  • Pressure testing (for certain packaging types)
A UN marking on a pail indicates that it has successfully passed the required testing for its intended packaging group and complies with applicable transportation regulations.
