Features and Benefits

Norgen’s Shipping Accessories provides a safe and convenient tool for shipping non-infectious biological specimens. The accessories are contained in individual SHIP TO envelopes that are used for shipping of both the accessories as well as the individual sample collection device to the donor/user.

Each SHIP TO envelope contains:

1. A Biohazard Specimen Bag with absorbent pad;
2. A Bubble Envelope labeled as “Exempt Human Specimen”;
3. 2 blank labels; 
4. Shipping Instructions

The Biohazard Specimen Bag is a sure-seal zipper bag to hold the collected specimen and protect against accidental spills. The bag contains an absorbent pad that can adsorb up to 4 mL of liquid and meets current labeling requirements of OSHA standard 29CFR1910.1030 regarding biohazard symbols. The Bubble Envelope is used as a RETURN envelope for the donor/user to ship the collected sample back to the lab for analysis. The user will first place the collected sample into the Biohazard Specimen Bag, and then place the Biohazard Specimen Bag into the Bubble Envelope. The Bubble Envelope protects against moisture and punctures, and facilitates smooth insertion with convenient self-sealing closure. The 2 labels are used for both the outer SHIP TO envelope and the RETURN bubble envelope. The SHIP TO label will be filled out to contain the mailing information of the donor and the RETURN label will be filled out to contain the address to which the sample should be returned. The labels can be supplied as sheets together with the word template file for ease of printing. Norgen’s Shipping Accessories match the regulations of the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
