Insofar as the goods, in view of their nature and of the agreed type of transport, require packaging, the sender is to package them in such a way that they are protected against loss and damage and that the carrier suffers no detriment. Where it is intended to hand over the goods for carriage in a container, on a pallet or on some other article of transport used to consolidate cargo units, the sender is to stow and secure the goods, also in or on the article of transport, so as to provide for their safe transport. Furthermore, the sender is to label the goods to the extent necessary to ensure their handling in accordance with the contract.
