Hazardous Substance Diamonds
As well as the requirements specific to their transportation, suppliers of dangerous goods are required by law to label their products and packaged chemicals with hazard symbols and safety advice. Recognised GHS symbols have been developed so that people handling hazardous goods know the nature of the hazard they present.
Below you can find a range of hazard warning diamonds which allow dangerous goods to be marked and identified during transportation and storage in line with ADR, IATA & IMDG regulations.
