Select the appropriate option for additional labels and markings to be included for cold packs on the outer packaging.

• A. UN3373 Biological Substance, Category B label
• B. BIOHAZARD symbol labels
• C. Class 3 label for flammable liquids
• D. None of the above

Answer: (D)

Labeling is driven by what is being shipped, not by the cooling method. Cold packs used to control temperature are part of the packaging and are not themselves hazardous goods. So they don’t require extra labeling on the outer packaging simply because they’re present. You only add labels for the dangerous goods inside the package, following the appropriate UN numbers and class labels. If you were using dry ice, there would be a specific Dry Ice label to apply; if you’re shipping a Biological Substance Category B, the label(s) pertain to the substance inside, not the cold pack. For ordinary nonhazardous contents with standard temperature control, there are no additional cold-pack-specific markings.
