Thanks Claire,
So I understand from the standards, that anyone packaging and sending instruments and samples that may contain infectious substances would need to undergo training?
Kind regards

Hi Helen,
I have done training via Airsafe for packing samples in the manner that Mona mentions.
https://www.airsafe.com.au/
They might also have good suggestions for your lightweight outer?
Kind regards,
Claire

Hi Brain Trust
Are you asking for suggestions for a cover of damage to equipment and/or biological cover? Laboratories are trained in sending biological specimens and these specimens require 3 layers with the outer layer being a rigid container. I would suggest cover in a plastic bag ( sorry did I say plastic?) an intermediate layer of bubble wrap and a reasonably sturdy cardboard box for the outer layer.
Kind regards

Dear Brains Trust,
Does anyone have experience in packaging and transporting RMDS including podiatry equipment in small fixed wing aircraft? The items are used in remote Aboriginal PHCCS and sent via small 4-6 seater aircraft to the Base Hospitals.
I am looking into some risk mitigation processes and have been requested to consider and advise on the most appropriate container which would need to be rigid, but fairly light and compact, as anything over 10kgs would incur additional costs.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
