Hazardous Labels

We manufacture Hazard labels in roll and sheet form.

 

The definitions of hazard were changed to provide specific criteria for the classification of health and physical hazards, and the classification of mixtures to ensure consistency across manufacturers and more accurate labels and safety data sheets.

 

So chemical manufacturers and importers are now required to provide a label that includes a harmonized signal word, pictogram, a hazard statement for each hazard class and category, and precautionary statements.

 

Hazard Labels now require the following elements on shipping containers:

Product identifier: The unique name or number used for a hazardous chemical on a label or on the SDS

Pictogram: A symbol on a white background within a red diamond

Signal word: A single word on the label to indicate the severity level of a hazard and its potential danger

Hazard Statement: A statement that describes the nature and degree of the hazard(s) of a chemical

Precautionary Statement: A phrase of recommended measures to minimize or prevent harmful effects resulting from exposure to a hazardous chemical

Name, address and telephone number of the chemical manufacturer, importer, or other responsible parties
