This printer has been approved for printing colour Global Harmonisation System (GHS) Chemical Hazard Labels and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to IMDG specification BS5609.
Chemical Hazard Labels
Chemical hazard labels are applied to chemical drums, containers and bottles.
They are required by law to help identify potential risks to people, wildlife and the environment.
They explain what the hazards are, how to avoid them, and communicate how the chemicals should be stored and safely disposed of.
The symbols used on chemical hazard labels identify chemicals which are explosive, oxidising, highly flammable, toxic, harmful, irritant, corrosive, or dangerous for the environment. One or more of these classifications can be applied to a single chemical mixture.
