About Chlorine PackagingThe safe handling, use, storage and actual packaging of chlorine in either cylinders or ton containers has always been an important part of the Chlorine Institute's safety mission. CI’s 210 member companies represent the complete value chain—from chlorine producers to packagers, distributors, users and suppliers. The Institute’s North American producer members account for 99 percent of the total chlorine production capacity of the U.S. and Canada. Packager members represent 99 percent of the total U. S. market. The Chlorine Institute has developed a library of 37 technical pamphlets and training resources specifically related to the safe handling and use of chlorine cylinders and ton containers, including The Chlorine Manual, Packaging Plant Safety and Operational Guidelines, Training Guide for Distributors and End-Users of Packaged Chlorine and Guidelines for the Safe Motor Vehicular Transportation of Chlorine Cylinders & Ton Containers. These products can be ordered on this website in the CI Bookstore. Purchase all titles in CI’s Library for Chlorine Packagers and save 25% Please note that cylinders and ton containers have many similarities in the way in which they are handled and many users of cylinders also use ton containers. Therefore, they are considered together in discussions of chlorine packaging. However, the terms “cylinder,” “ton cylinder” or “drum” should NOT be used to describe the ton container. Emergency equipment for handling ton containers is different from that used for cylinders and confusion can be avoided if proper terms are used. The titles below were produced by CI’s Packaging Committee to address key areas important for both safety and successful use. These resources can be downloaded free of charge.
