It may be toxic, but it can still be transported by air.
I know the package I received recently from ZoneImaging had the proper paperwork and identified as film developer liquid hazardous. Can’t speak for other companies.
The ongoing discussion led by @Ian Grant is on the new MSDS of Zone Imaging's 510-Pyro which has dispensed of toxicity warnings (the skull & cross bones symbol that you can see on your 510-Pyro bottle).
Over the last years quite some dangerous substance symbols have been changed within the EU.
Concerning toxicity to man:
Skull w. crossed bones = "lifethreatening poisoning after contact with small amount for short time"
black Torso = "very severe harm to health with retarded effect"
There may be found examples of well known large companies that do not, eg, Merck/Sigma AldrichI think it's compulsory to display the skull and crossbones symbol with a material that is in class 6.1.

SDS section 14 IATA: Not dangerous goods
I do not understand all the talk about this to be honest. I have received last week the order from ZoneImaging’s 510 Pyro. It was bottled, invoiced and shipped with proper labeling and identification to all parties as required by law.
I read through the thread. How many people here use their real name?

Fair enough, but my experience was not negative with ZoneImaging.
Maybe the guy made a mistake, maybe it was someone else messing with his identity to harm his business.
All kinds of misinformation happens online. I learned a long time ago to take whatever I read from "handles" with a grain of salt.
he still claims working with PE/Ron Mowrey, despite the fact Ron passed away before he asked him any questions.
Interestingly, Merc/Sigma show the skull and cross bones symbol for Catechol and hazard statement of 6.1 for transportation! I was always made to believe that Pyrogallol is more toxic and dangerous than Catechol.
This still remains a puzzle to me. Going by Merc/Sigma's MSDS, is Pyrogallol less toxic than Catechol?
I was just out for dinner with the CEO of Adox and others last week. We were both trying to convince the founder of Europe's largest lab to switch to our respective flagship developers from Kodak's HC110.
If the biggest lab in Europe does get interested in 510-Pyro thanks to the Zone Imaging's plug, what stops the lab from brewing the concentrate from the ingredients itself? After all the formula is in public domain, ingredients are not too hard to source and the concentrate is not technically complicated to make unlike HC-110.
Ian and others who have shown an interest in Zone Imaging and James Lane, here's a comment below that I found the other day on one of the least populated YouTube site in terms of comments. Other than James this presenter has one other comment on this particular video about which is the best developer for CHS II from Adox
I found it intriguing but it left more questions than answers It appears that James was out for dinner with Mirko and others last week It sounds as if amongst the others there was the founder of Europe's largest lab and he,James , and Mirko were trying to get the owner of this lab to switch to their respective flagship developers from HC110. I assume that James's flagship developer is 510 Pyro but maybe he now has another that he considers to be a rival to HC110 . He doesn't say what Mirko's developer is that is a rival to HC110. Nor do we know the purpose of the dinner.
Neither could apparently persuade this owner to change to either flagship developer. I wonder how difficult converting the biggest lab in Europe to 510 pyro would be? 510 doesn't sound like the easiest of developers to use in a lab setting but I don't know enough about lab set-ups to judge
Anyone any thoughts on Adox' flagship developer?
It just seems a strange site on which to announce the above. He managed to get a "plug" for himself and 510 pyro but as I said it is one of the sites with almost no followers so not the best platform on which to sell yourself and your product

Unfortunately, the lab owner said no to us citing it wasn't economical for either but at least he said he didn't like the look of FX39 but didn't say the same about 510 Pyro!"
