UN3090 Battery Label 100 x 100 mm Paper Label – Marking for the Transport of Lithium Metal Batteries Shipped Separately

Replacement batteries, industrial energy storage units, and specialized power supply systems are frequently transported independently of any equipment. Clear battery marking is essential for this type of shipment. The UN3090 Battery Label has been specifically designed for the transport of lithium metal batteries that are shipped without being contained in or packed with equipment.

The highly visible battery mark in the 100 x 100 mm format supports rapid identification of shipments throughout logistics operations. Whether in receiving departments, distribution centers, or transport networks, the internationally recognized battery symbol immediately indicates the specific nature of the package contents.

The label is manufactured from high-quality paper with a permanent adhesive and is ideally suited for cartons, shipping boxes, and transport packaging used in dry storage and shipping environments. Supplied on rolls, the labels can be applied quickly and efficiently, making them particularly suitable for high-volume shipping operations.

Developed for Professional Battery Shipping

Lithium metal batteries are used in a wide range of applications requiring long-term power supply. Typical examples include security and alarm systems, measuring equipment, medical devices, industrial electronics, and emergency backup systems.

Companies shipping these batteries separately require a clearly visible shipping label that can be integrated easily into existing packaging processes. The UN3090 Battery Label has been specifically designed for this purpose.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

When do I need a UN3090 battery label?

A UN3090 battery label is used when lithium metal batteries are transported as standalone shipments. The label is intended to clearly identify the contents of the package and display relevant transport information.

What does UN number 3090 mean?

UN3090 refers to lithium metal batteries shipped without equipment. The number is used internationally for the classification of dangerous goods.

Which products are typically classified as UN3090?

Examples include replacement batteries for industrial applications, battery packs for security systems, power supply units for measuring devices, and lithium metal cells for specialized technical applications.

What is the difference between UN3090 and UN3091?

UN3090 applies to lithium metal batteries shipped on their own. UN3091 is used when the batteries are contained in equipment or packed together with equipment.

Why are lithium metal batteries labeled separately?

Lithium metal batteries have specific characteristics that must be considered during transportation. Proper labeling helps identify these shipments throughout the supply chain.

What types of packaging can this label be used on?

The paper label adheres to cardboard, corrugated cardboard, paper surfaces, and many other packaging materials commonly used in shipping and logistics.

Which companies can benefit from using this label?

The label is commonly used by manufacturers, wholesalers, maintenance providers, laboratories, shippers of technical components, and logistics companies.

Does a telephone number still need to be printed on the label?

No. IATA recommends using the battery mark without a telephone number. However, shipments should not be rejected if a telephone number is included.

IATA statement: The previous battery mark containing a field for a telephone number has been discontinued. The older version contains additional information and should not be used as the sole basis for rejecting a shipment. Shippers are encouraged to use the current version of the battery mark.
