Which of the following options correctly lists materials that are transported in industrial containers?

• A. Fresh fruit; Paper towels; Sand
• B. Contaminated clothing; Laboratory samples; Smoke detectors
• C. Steel bars; Concrete; Glass
• D. Batteries; Plastic pellets; Paint

Answer: (B)

Materials that require industrial containers are those that pose hazards or need regulatory controls during transport. Contaminated clothing must be contained to prevent spreading contamination; laboratory samples can carry chemical or biological hazards and need proper containment; smoke detectors contain radioactive material and require packaging that secures the source and displays the correct hazard information. These reasons make industrial containers the appropriate choice for transporting such items. The other groups are generally ordinary goods or bulk items shipped in standard consumer or bulk packaging, not the specialized industrial containers used for regulated or hazardous materials.
