Hazardous materials labeling is not one universal format. The required marking or label depends on what is being shipped, its classification, the package, the quantity and the mode of transport. LabelData produces the physical labels to the specification you provide.
For regulated hazardous materials moving by ground in the United States, label and marking requirements are governed by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the applicable provisions of 49 CFR.
Dangerous goods shipped by air are subject to air transport requirements. IATA’s Dangerous Goods Regulations cover classification, packaging, marking, labeling and documentation for air shipments.
International maritime transport of dangerous goods in packaged form is governed through the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code.
LabelData’s role is label production, not hazard classification. Before ordering, confirm the correct hazard class, UN number, marking, label format and size required for your shipment with your carrier, freight forwarder or qualified hazmat compliance professional.
