What Is Lab Packing?

Lab packing is the process of safely sorting, categorizing, and packaging small quantities of hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals for transportation and disposal. Each chemical is individually assessed and packed into compatible containers with proper absorbents and labeling, ensuring it remains stable during transport and meets all regulatory requirements.

We handle the entire process, from inventory and identification to final disposal — reducing your risk, liability, and administrative burden.
