Testing and certification of packaging for transport of dangerous goods demand quite a lot of resources, economical as well as personal. The man principle is that every type of packaging to be used for dangerous goods should be tested. Aiming to minimize this amount on testing two possibilities for selective testing have been studied in this report : when the packaging differs from a type earlier tested only because some geometric dimension is smaller, or when it comes to combination packagings. In the report it will be shown that selective testing is possible in the case of dimension variations when the reduction is less than around 10%. In the report it is furthermore demonstrated that selective testing is possible for combination packagings.
