Regulations for
the Transport of
Dangerous Goods
Courtesy ISO Focus
The world of international transport
has seen the need to guarantee safety
when carrying dangerous goods,
such as gases in cylinders. Each mode of
transport has developed its own rules such
as the International Maritime Dangerous
Goods Code developed by the International
Maritime Organization (IMO) and the
Technical Instructions published by the
International Civil Aviation Organization
(ICAO).
