Posted on 2/20/2018 by Roger Marks

UPS last week announced it will expand its International Special Commodities (ISC) program to allow healthcare providers, life sciences companies, and others to ship certain dangerous goods to 51 new countries and territories.

Find convenient training solutions to ship infectious substances and dry ice by ground and air. 

The list of 51 new destinations is available from UPS here.
