Key Benefits to You

Many shippers, forwarders and carriers involved in the transport of dangerous goods by air are not aware that the “regulations” they have become accustomed to using over years are actually based on an underlying framework set out under Convention by ICAO (The International Civil Aviation Organisation).

The Technical Instructions represent the official legislative provisions for the transport of dangerous goods by air for all member states globally (and the airlines registered within those states).  They are quite simply the facts in this arena.

The Emergency Response Guidance publication references these Instructions in an easy-to-use format.  This then provides a basis for the rapid response required in avoiding the sorts of physical and financial loss which can result from a major dangerous goods incident on board an aircraft.
