The four leaves

By Dwight Davis, Founder

On this page11
Absorbent is the leaf this shelf is actually for.

UN rated liquid

Specification packaging for a liquid hazardous material, which means a marked design type with a tested hydrostatic pressure in element five. We do not record marks and cannot serve it.

UN rated solid

The same, with the letter S in element five and a maximum gross mass in element four. Same answer.

Overpack

An outer enclosure used to consolidate packages for handling. It is a defined concept in the regulations with its own marking expectations, and it is a box rather than a container in our sense.

Which we do not make

Nothing on this shelf is an overpack. 30 tubs and pails and 11 jugs are containers, and an overpack is the thing you put containers into.

Absorbent

Material placed to take up a release. This is the leaf a general container catalog genuinely serves, because absorbent is bought in bulk and stored in ordinary tubs.

And it connects to a requirement elsewhere

The diagnostics property quotes the Category B rule that absorbent must be "of sufficient quantity to absorb the entire contents of the primary receptacles". Absorbent is a calculated quantity rather than a gesture.

Which makes bulk storage the real need

30 tubs and pails here, 34 containers over a gallon and 6 at five gallons. For keeping absorbent where a spill might happen, that is a real offering.

All polyolefin, which suits it

60 HDPE, 14 PP and 2 LDPE, with no glass, PET or steel. For a tub of absorbent in a chemical store, polyolefin is right and glass would be absurd.

The shelf is the smallest in the library

76 containers. Which is appropriate: this is a specialist regulated category and a general catalog should be small in it rather than pretending otherwise.

So the honest position is one leaf of four

Absorbent, well. Overpack, not at all. The two UN rated leaves, not until the catalog records marks.

References

Our catalog records material, capacity, neck finish, dimensions and case pack. It does NOT record whether a container carries a UN specification mark, which is the attribute that defines the product two of this group's four leaves describe. Nothing here is offered as UN specification packaging and nothing here should be assumed to be.
The Davis Pack Supply catalog, measured 19 October 2026. The hazmat shelf is 310 rows: 76 containers and 234 closures, the smallest container count of any property in this library. 500 mL to 18,927 mL with a median of 2,514; 65 containers over a quart, 34 over a gallon and 6 at five gallons. 60 HDPE, 14 PP, 2 LDPE, and no glass, PET or steel. 30 tubs and pails, 23 bottles, 12 jars, 11 jugs. 46 white, 23 natural, 4 black, 2 clear. Closures: 175 continuous thread, 12 child resistant, 11 round tubs, 10 dome lids, 10 tub and pail lids, 5 flip top, 3 liners and sealing discs, 3 spouted, 2 phenolic.
Written from 49 CFR 178.503 and from the catalog as it stood on 19 October 2026. No specimen UN mark appears here, because the regulation gives its examples as images rather than as text. Nothing in this catalog is offered as UN specification packaging: we do not record whether a container carries a mark, and the mark belongs to a tested design type and is applied by its manufacturer. Packing group determinations, shipping names and documentation are the shipper's.
