CTU - Special Situations

Note that a specific list of dangerous goods cannot be transported in the same container as foodstuffs. It is important to be cautious when approaching CTUs with dangerous goods because leakage, vapors, or atmospheric conditions may develop during transport; note the procedures under 7.3.6. A special situation applies for those dangerous goods that must be transported under certain temperature conditions. These are detailed in Section 7.3.7.
