SL 09/22 – Safe Transport of Dry Ice – Safety Hazards

(Revision of SL 09/17)  Every year many incidents occur during transportation of Dry Ice (solid carbon dioxide) in inappropriate vehicles. Unfortunately, this frequently results in severe incidents. Many of these could have been avoided if basic safety rules had been followed.
EIGA has developed a serious of publications aimed at helping customers to transport gases and Dry Ice more safely in "non dedicated" vehicles.
This Safety Leaflet is intended to be shared with customers collecting Dry Ice packages from sites or retail centres. The leaflets explain the safety hazards and then describe the basic precautions to be taken to stay safe.
