kg. The volumetric weight indicates how much space a parcel takes up in relation to its weight, and is
calculated on the basis of the TACT rules operated by IATA (International Air Transport Association)using the
following formula:


Length x width x height in cm / 6.000

parcels, nevertheless in case of DPD CLASSIC (INT) calculator is just a qualifier and does not affect the price.
