European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by 1995

This European Agreement, more popularly known as ADR, aims to ensure that dangerous goods arriving at a frontier in or on a road vehicle have been suitably packed and are being carried safely. It replaces the 1993 edition, and becomes applicable from January 1995. The volume contains the texts of the European Agreement itself and the technical Annexes A and B. The system of classification of dangerous goods under ADR is based on the Recommendations of the United Nations Committee of Experts of the Transport of Dangerous Goods, published in the Orange Book.
