In order to provide safety and harmonization, the labeling of products and chemical mixtures has been made mandatory since June 1, 2015. The display of hazard pictograms should be universally in compliance with European CLP and global SGH regulations.
To reinforce the safety related to the use of these products, CLP custom labels must be designed with warning pictograms as well as legal notices of danger and safety advice.
CLP/SGH standards for universal hazard pictograms.
These new CLP symbols will replace the squared and orange pictograms determined by the previous legislation. This new regulation is mandatory since December 2010 for «substances», and also applies to «mixtures» from June 1, 2015 in all member states of the European Union. This new CLP rule definitively supersedes the pre-existing classification and is the European reference text for the application of the «Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling (GHS) » internationally.
