RDI absorbent pouches:
safeTsorb and safeThold

When transporting Biological Substance Category B animal/human specimens under UN3373 regulations, absorbent pouches play a pivotal role in ensuring safety and compliance. These pouches are an integral component of the regulatory secondary packaging requirements and align seamlessly with DOT and IATA shipping guidelines.

Absorbent pouches to ensure sample integrity and safety

In the unfortunate event of an unforeseen leakage due to logistical and transport challenges, our absorbent pouches step in as your reliable safeguard.

Our absorbent pouches safeTsorb and safeThold are critical components to your kit, ready to tackle any unforeseen challenges. Designed to address the vulnerability of primary receptacles, serving as an added layer of protection during transit and ensuring the security of your sample tubes.

The RDI range of absorbent pouches excels firstly, by effectively containing any liquid, and secondly, by maintaining a cushioned separation between sample tubes. This dual-functionality is pivotal when preventing contamination and the potential risk of infection.

Our pouches offer high absorption capacity, effectively capturing and securing any spillage. They not only keep your sample tubes apart but also provide the essential cushioning required for safe transportation.

Both safeTsorb and safeThold are compatible with UN3373 requirements for Biological Substance Category B packaging and can seamlessly integrate with secondary packaging requirements.

SafeThold provides the same level of absorbency but with the difference of a transparent front to facilitate any requirements for when a sample needs to be displayed.

Absorbency requirements for UN3373 compliance

Adherence to UN3373 regulations is paramount since these mandate that samples be packaged and shipped under Biological Substance, Category B specifications.

The UN3373 specify packaging be comprised of a primary receptacle enclosed within a secondary package, all housed within a rigid outer layer. It is also required that an absorbent material is present within the package to manage any unprecedented spillage. safeTsorb absorbent pouches serve as an integral component, fulfilling the secondary packaging requirement to the highest quality of compliance.
