Technical Hazmat Resources

Although the manufacturing of high-quality shipping products, materials, and equipment is typically our main concern at LPS Industries, we also want to ensure that our customers have everything they need to fully understand how to safely package and ship certain materials.

On this page, we’ve compiled a long list of resources that will cover extensive details about hazmat regulations, training requirements, labeling standards, definitions, and much more.

● Hazard Class Definitions provide definitions for classifying hazardous materials, including forbidden materials.
● Hazardous Materials Tables are here to help identify the hazard class or specify materials that are forbidden in transportation and provide proper shipping names.
