NMFC Description Class
59410.00 Tablets, enzymatic, contact lens cleaning, with or without vials, in boxes 250

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Use sturdy corrugated boxes and add a moisture barrier (poly bag or liner) so enzymes stay dry; cushion retail boxes or vials to prevent tablet chipping.
  2. Palletize with light, even stacking; avoid top-load pressure and use corner boards and stretch wrap. Mark pallets Do Not Top Load if tablets are brittle.
  3. List NMFC 59410 and Class 250 on the BOL as “Enzymatic contact lens cleaning tablets, in boxes; with or without vials.” Density entry is not required for this item.
  4. Keep product away from liquids and temperature extremes during transit. For sensitive batches, choose faster LTL services to limit cross-dock exposure.

Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with a fixed Class 250 reduces reclass charges and surprise invoices.
  • Non-hazardous status cuts hazmat paperwork and surcharges, expanding carrier options and speeding tendering.
  • Boxed format streamlines fulfillment for medical distributors and eye care clinics, lowering damage claims from crushed or moisture-exposed tablets.
  • One code covers tablets with or without vials, simplifying SKU management and accelerating BOL preparation.
