Hazard Classes
There are nine classes of dangerous goods. The purpose of classification is to group dangerous goods together in such a way that the characteristics, properties, and hazards presented by all members of the class are similar. These classifications allow appropriate recommendations to be made for the packaging, handling, and shipping of a wide variety of dangerous goods. The nine classes are:
Class 1 - Explosives
Class 2 - Gases
Class 3 - Flammable Liquids
Class 4 - Flammable Solids
Class 5 - Oxidizing Substances and Organic Peroxides
Class 6 - Toxic and Infectious Substances
Class 7 - Radioactive Materials
Class 8 - Corrosive Substances
Class 9 - Miscellaneous
