In general, all batteries in all forms of transportation (ground, air, or ocean) must be
packaged in a safe and responsible manner. Regulatory concerns from all agencies for
safe packaging require that batteries be packaged in a manner that prevents short
circuits and be contained in “strong outer packaging” that prevents spillage of contents.
All original packaging for Pairdeer alkaline batteries has been designed to be compliant
with these regulatory concerns.
Alkaline batteries (sometimes referred to as “Dry cell” batteries) are not listed as
dangerous goods under the ADR European Agreement Concerning the International
Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road, the IMDG International Maritime Dangerous
Goods Code, UN Dangerous Good Regulations, IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations,
ICAO Technical Instructions and the U.S. hazardous materials regulations (49 CFR).
These batteries are not subject to the dangerous goods regulations provided they meet
the requirements contained in the following special provisions.
