Key Considerations for Shipping CO2 Cartridges
- Hazardous Goods Compliance – CO2 cartridges are classified as dangerous goods (UN1013, Class 2.2). Ensure compliance with IATA and IMDG regulations.
- Customs & Import Restrictions – Some countries (Japan, EU, Australia) have strict import laws. Proper documentation is required.
- Shipping Costs – Sea freight is cheaper but slower, while air freight is faster but more expensive due to hazardous goods fees.
- Peak Season Delays – Shipping times may increase during peak seasons (Q4, Chinese New Year).
