If you just want to keep up-to-date on hazmat and mil-spec packaging then www.airpack.com is still there for you. Additionally, the Airpack website now links to JGA Training so you don't have to change your internet bookmarks.
 
Two websites, one set of customer service and support standards you have come to trust and rely on.

We also have Facebook pages.
 Give us some "Likes" on Facebook to help spread the knowledge of hazmat in transportation.
