This all depends on what the product is specifically.

Perishable Goods are defined by IATA as any products requiring more than usual handling or are of a heat, light, humidity, temperature, time sensitivity.

E.g. Fruit & Vegetables, Meat, Seafood, Dairy Foods, Some Wine, Film, Flowers, Live Animals are all considered Perishable Commodities.

However every Commodity has a specific set of protocols for handling and transportation and no two shipments are ever the same.

Hope this helps
