The biodegradable loose fill is made from corn starch and unlike other loose fills on the market is 100% compostable and provides better all-round protection than polystyrene loose fill.

Vermiculite is the geological name given to a group of hydrated laminar minerals which are aluminum-iron-magnesium silicates.

*Vermiculite is chemical resistant /non-reactive to almost all chemicals, however, it is the shippers responsibility to check compatibility of the substance and packaging materials used.

For those who work in a clean room environment, alternative cushioning is available for example biodegradable loose fill chips. These white odorless chips are a light-weight, dust-free alternative to vermiculite and provide high level shock and impact protection to inner packagings during transport.

It is a silver-gold to gray-brown mineral that is flat and shiny in its natural state. However, vermiculite undergoes significant expansion when subject to elevated temperatures, the raw material exfoliates, leaving a lightweight, inert aggregate. This expanded form has low thermal conductivity, low heat capacity and high thermal insulation properties, it is incombustible, *chemical resistant, odorless, and provides a high level of absorbency and cushioning, making it a great solution for shippers as a hazardous goods packaging material.

Aug 5, 2024 — Loss prevention is a type of risk assessment and it aims to maximize a business enterprise's profits by better managing preventable losses.

A simple way for operators to check whether the trailer is specified for use in a road train is to check the manufacturer’s plate. This will show whether the vehicle has been built to meet the specific requirements for use in a road train combination. Operators can also check whether there is a modification plate fitted showing VSB 6 Code S11. If the manufacturer’s plate does not indicate suitability for use in a road train combination and there is no modification plate showing VSB 6 Code S11, a more detailed check will be required to confirm compliance.

Yes, vermiculite itself is safe to use.  In the past there have been stories about vermiculite containing asbestos. This case has been thoroughly investigated and has been associated with one specific vermiculite deposit, where naturally occurring asbestos minerals developed alongside the vermiculite. When the vermiculite was mined, some asbestos minerals contaminated the vermiculite. These asbestos minerals are called Libby Amphibole Asbestos (LAA). This mine, located in Libby, Montana was closed in 1990. Since, all vermiculite producers as a precaution test vermiculite for the absence of asbestos to ensure it is safe to use.

Road train vehicle and trailer components, such as brakes, tow couplings and drawbars, experience significantly higher loads and stresses than other combinations. To ensure road trains operate safely, the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) and Australian Design Rules (ADRs) apply specific requirements to vehicle components used in road trains. Operators and other parties in the Chain of Responsibility (CoR) must ensure that vehicles used in road train combinations comply with these safety-critical requirements.

In terms of usage with Dangerous Goods Packaging, vermiculite in its loose fill form is compressible so is excellent as a cushioning material, used for filling voids around articles or inner packaging it sufficiently protects them from damage during transport. As vermiculite is resistant to fire, it is an ideal cushioning material for lithium batteries, explosives and flammable liquids or solids. Known for its absorbent properties, vermiculite can also be used as an alternative to absorbent sheets and can act as an absorbent material when transporting liquids.

Not only is exfoliated vermiculite in its loose fill form ideal for use as cushioning in HazMat Packaging, it has many other usages. Common commercial examples include, for use in explosives storage as a blast mitigant, in fire protection, for refractory and high temperature insulation, as loose fill insulation, for horticultural potting mixes, soil-less growing medium, seed generation, soil conditioner, in acoustic panels, fireproofing of structural steel and pipes and in brake linings due to its thermal resistance.

Note: Road trains operating under the Performance Based Standards (PBS) scheme must comply with the conditions of their Vehicle Approval (VA).
