There is no evidence that LQ’s are not safe
• protection by cartons (scrapes, containment,…)
• in case of fire, all combustible material will burn anyway
• Inéris report indicates that LQ cartons reduce rate of fire propagation
• Experience from limited number of road traffic accidents

Marking of LQ packs
• CEPE supports this option as diamond shape is a recognised symbol of hazard
• UN number will assist emergency services to identify both levels of hazard & risk

Specific UN number Consumer Commoditie or LQs
• This is a real problem for industries packing products both in LQ and UN packs
• It does not provide detailed information about hazard & risk
• If airline industry would accept LQ’s, no need to extend Consumer Commodities

Placarding of Transport Unitssmall loads / CTU
• Is recognized by CEPE as likely to bring helpful information to emergency services
• Must be similar in IMDG & Road transport- UN to set the principles, modes to specify operational
details in line with work of other modes.
• smaller vehicles (< 3,5 t) should not need placarding: difficult for driver to know exactly number of LQ cartons at a particular point in the journey, when picking-up, delivering (milk-round type deliveries, express parcels,…), or both combined…

Placarding of Transport Units bigger loads / CTU
• CEPE understands that a single consignement > x tons could be placarded with LQ diamond .
• In any case this should not trigger orange plates placarding (or similar in other parts of the world) which relate to tanker loads or larger packages.
• This would indeed create confusion for enforcers, requiring drivers training, equipped vehicle, etc…
• Practicalities must also be considered (adhesive labels on sides instead of plates on front & rear,…)
