About this file
This is a commercial packaging requirements document that outlines detailed specifications for packaging ammunition containers. The document provides comprehensive requirements across several key areas: packaging preservation must provide protection for one year and allow for multiple handling/redistribution; items must be free of contaminants; items susceptible to corrosion require protective coatings and barriers; cushioning is required for fragile/sensitive materials; bulk packaging requires appropriate separators and padding; and unit package quantities are typically one item unless otherwise specified.
The requirements include specific details for shipping containers that must be stackable to 10 feet high, palletization requirements for shipments over 50 cubic feet using 40x48 inch 4-way entry pallets, marking requirements per MIL-STD-130 including 2D barcodes, hazardous materials handling per Title 49 CFR, and wood packaging material heat treatment specifications per ISPM-15 standards. This document applies to several ammunition container types including PA162 fiber containers for 81mm cartridges (NSN 8140-01-505-7653), PA167 containers, PA175 containers, PA71/A fiber containers (NSN 8140-01-456-8878), and PA55 105mm howitzer containers (NSN 8140-00-410-8331).

COMMERCIAL PACKAGING REQUIREMENTS
(a) Packaging - Preservation, packaging, packing, unitization, and marking furnished by the supplier shall provide protection for a minimum of one year, provide for multiple handling, redistribution and shipment by any mode and meet or exceed the following requirements.
(1) Cleanliness - Items shall be free of dirt and other contaminants which would contribute to the deterioration of the item, or which would require cleaning by the customer prior to use. Coatings and preservatives applied to the item for protection are not considered contaminants.
(2) Preservation - Items susceptible to corrosion or deterioration shall be provided protection such as preservative coatings, volatile corrosion inhibitors, desiccants, water-proof and/or water-vapor-proof barriers.
(3) Cushioning - Items requiring protection from physical and mechanical damage (e.g. fragile, sensitive, critical material) or which could cause physical damage to other items, shall be protected by wrapping, cushioning, pack compartmentalization, or other means to mitigate shock and vibration and prevent damage during handling and shipment.
(b)Packing
(1) Unit packages and intermediate packages meeting the requirements for a shipping container may be utilized as shipping containers. All shipping containers shall be the most cost effective and shall be of the minimum cube to contain and protect the items. A unit package shall be so designed and constructed that it will contain the contents with no damage to the item(s), and with minimal damage to the unit pack during shipment and storage in the shipping container and will allow subsequent handling.
(2) Bulk Packaging – Items packaged directly in shipping containers shall be separated with pads, liners, partitions, or dividers as required to protect the parts, strengthen the container and to distribute the load.
(3) Unit Package Quantity - Unless otherwise specified, the unit package quantity shall be one each part, set, assembly, kit, etc.
(4) Shipping Containers - The shipping container (including any necessary blocking, bracing, cushioning, or waterproofing) shall comply with the regulations of the carrier used and shall provide safe delivery to the destination at the lowest tariff cost. The shipping container shall be capable of multiple handling, stacking at least ten feet high, and storage under favorable conditions (such as enclosed facilities) for a minimum of one year.
(c) Unitization
(1) Shipments of identical items going to the same destination shall be palletized if they have a total cubic displacement of 50 cubic feet or more unless skids or other forklift handling features are included on the containers.
Pallet loads must be stable, and to the greatest extent possible, provide a level top for ease of stacking. A palletized load shall be of a size to allow for placement of two loads high and wide in a conveyance. The weight capacity of the pallet must be adequate for the load. The preferred commercial expendable pallet is a 40 x 48 inch, 4-way entry pallet although variations may be permitted as dictated by the characteristics of the items being unitized. The load shall be contained in a manner that will permit safe handling during shipment and storage.
(d) Marking
(1) All unit packages, intermediate packs, exterior shipping containers, and as applicable, unitized loads shall be marked in accordance with the latest revision of MIL-STD-130, including one 2D bar code per outer shipping container. The contractor is responsible for application of special markings as discussed in the Military Standard regardless of whether specified in the contract or not. Special markings include, but are not limited to, shelf-life markings, structural markings, and transportation special handling markings.
(e)Hazardous Materials
(1) A hazardous material is defined as a substance which has been determined by the Department of Transportation to be capable of posing an unreasonable risk to health, safety, and property when transported in commerce and which has been so designated. (This includes all items listed as hazardous in Title 49 CFR and other applicable modal regulations effective at the time of shipment.) Ammunition and explosives (Hazard Class
1) are special cases and must be properly hazard classified and registered with the competent authority of the United States (Department of Transportation).
(2) Packaging and marking for hazardous material shall comply with the requirements for the mode of transport and the applicable performance packaging contained in the following document: Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 49.
(f)Heat Treatment and Marking of Wood Packaging Materials
(1) In accordance with the requirements of the International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) 15, the following commercial heat treatment process has been approved by the American Lumber Standards Committee (ALSC) and is required for all Wood Packaging Material (WPM).
Boxes/pallets and any wood used as inner packaging made of non-manufactured wood shall be heat-treated. All WPM shall be constructed from heat treated (treated to 56 degrees Celsius -core temperature- for 30 minutes) lumber and certified by an agency accredited by the ALSC in accordance with Wood Packaging Material Policy and Wood Packaging Material Enforcement Regulations (see URL: ://www.alsc.org). The box/pallet manufacturer and the manufacturer of wood used as inner packaging shall ensure traceability to the original source of heat treatment marking. Each box/pallet shall be marked to show the conformance to the International Plant Protection Convention Standard. The quality mark shall be placed on both ends of the outer packaging, between the end cleats or end battens. Pallet markings shall be applied to the stringer or block on diagonally opposite sides or ends of the pallet and be contrasting and clearly visible. All dunnage lumber used in configuring and/or securing the load shall also comply with ISPM-15 and be marked with an ALSC approved dunnage stamp on opposite surfaces.
Foreign manufacturers shall have the heat treatment and marking of non-manufactured wood products verified in accordance with the ISPM-15 compliance program.
(g)Quality Assurance
(1) The contractor is responsible for establishing a quality system. Full consideration to examinations, inspections, and tests will be given to ensure the acceptability of the commercial package.
