on the package and that it meets the quality and
specification requirements of the regulations;
• Ensure the specification packaging is required, the
specification marks are as specified;
• Remove or obliterate any irrelevant marks;

the package is presented to the operator.
41. DGR updated’20 41
As a minimum each package or overpack containing dangerous goods
must be clearly marked to
show:

1. An "x" at the intersection of a row and a column indicates that packages containing these
classes/Diisions of dangerous goods must be segregated. A "-" at the intersection of a row and a
column indicates that packages containing these class/divisions of dangerous goods do not require
segregation.
2. Divisions 1.45, 4.1 and Class 6, 7 and 9 are not included in Table 9.3.A as they do not require
segregation from other classes of dangerous goods.
