When carbon dioxide, (solid) dry ice is used in air<br />

transport, it must be in packaging designed <strong>and</strong><br />

constructed to permit the release <strong>of</strong> carbon dioxide gas<br />

<strong>and</strong> to prevent a build-up <strong>of</strong> pressure that could rupture<br />

the packaging.<br />

The net weight <strong>of</strong> the carbon dioxide, solid (dry ice) must<br />

be marked on the outside <strong>of</strong> the package.<br />

Dry ice MUST NOT be placed inside the primary or<br />

secondary packaging!!<br />

Put dry ice between the secondary <strong>and</strong> outer package
