HazCom Labeling

Chemical Hazard Warnings - NFPA Diamond Labels - RTK Labels - Labels and Signs For Hazard Communications
 
Whether you work in an industrial facility, such as those above, a hospital, construction site or office building, hazcom labeling is critically important. Chemical hazards must be identified and properly labeled.

Making HazCom Labels

When dealing with hazardous materials, not only is proper labeling important, but having clear, easily to read, durable labels is critical. This is when you need to have an industrial quality labeling machine.

But, you need more than just any label maker. An industrial labeling machine should use quality, durable supplies and have the ability to print the correct size labels using the appropriate symbology.

Two of the labeling machines we recommend for hazardous material labeling are the Duralabel 4TTP and Brady Globalmark. Both use a wide variety of supplies allowing you to handle most hazcom labeling requirements.

Duralabel label and sign makerThe DuraLabel 4 labeler uses your computer to design and store labels and signs. You'll get high quality, durable labels from this economical thermal transfer label printer.   Globalmark label and sign makerThe Brady Globalmark is a stand-alone desktop label and sign printer featuring fast label design using advanced touch-screen technology.

Other labeling machines that are excellent for hazardous material labeling and warning signs are the Kroy 5100 (handheld label printer) and K-Sun 9600Ki (desktop/portable labeler).

Global Harmization of Chemical Labeling (PDF) - The Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals is a system for standardizing and harmonizing the classification and labeling of chemicals.  It is a logical and comprehensive approach to defining health, physical and environmental hazards of chemicals; creating classification processes that use available data on chemicals for comparison with the defined hazard criteria; and communicating hazard information, as well as protective measures,  on labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
