eBook - The Ins & Outs of Shipping Batteries
Lithium batteries are an integral part of everyday life; powering
cell phones to electric vehicles. Despite their popularity, lithium
batteries are considered dangerous goods and must comply with
ever-changing shipping regulations. How can standalone cells
ship versus battery packs or batteries integrated into a product?
If shipping by air, what is the acceptable state-of-charge (SOC)
for a cells and batteries? Labelmaster provides onsite audits,
similar to a DOT inspection, to educate and enable manufacturers,
covering everything from paperwork and shipping labels. They
can also assist retailers in avoiding product delays and recall
concerns. SGS explores the intricacies of shipping batteries
internationally and how to avoid costly delays with regulations
effective August 2017 for shipments to India. Ignorance isn’t
bliss when it comes to complying with changing regulations for
shipping batteries. Education, training and audits are all tools
available to help companies navigate regulations and avoid
penalties, delay of product, or loss of consumer confidence.
