The ICAO Dangerous Goods Panel (DGP) met in October 2011 and again in February 2012 to discuss revised procedures for Lithium Batteries. Specifically the handling of “bulk” shipments prepared under Section II of Packing Instructions 965 and 968 to appear on the information to the pilot-in-command.
Daniamant can confirm that these new regulatory changes do not affect any of our products as these changes relate to Classification UN3090, packing instructions PI 965 and PI968. All of Daniamant products are classed as UN3091 "Lithium Metal Batteries Contained in Equipment" and comply with packing instruction PI970.
For full details of the changes (effective 1st January 2013) please see the following link:
