What is A “Safety & Warning Label”?

Safety & warning labels are labels that express specific safety information to draw attention to risk factors. They usually include elements such as text descriptions, graphic symbols, and colors. It is used to warn of danger and clearly indicates the existing danger, such as high pressure, high temperature, flammable and explosive, so that people can take appropriate preventive measures.

Safety & warning labels use bold colors and graphic symbols to provide correct methods or steps to ensure that people are safe when using equipment or performing certain activities.

BX Panel Safety & Warning Label Technical Information

1. Design phase

Determine the content: According to the features and Safety requirements of the safety & warning label, determine the information to be contained on the label, such as the product name, danger level, hazard description, preventive measures, first aid advice, and manufacturer information. Choose the right GHS (Globally Harmonized System) pictograms to visually communicate chemical hazards.

Design layout: Use professional design software (such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.) to create the preliminary design of the label. Ensure that all information is legible and complies with relevant regulations and standards (such as OSHA’s HazCom 2012 standards). Arrange the space on the label so that the information is orderly and easy to understand.

2. Review and confirmation

Internal audit: Relevant departments or personnel conduct internal audit of safety & warning label design to ensure the accuracy and completeness of information. Check labels for compliance with company policies and regulations.

Customer validation (if applicable) : The design is presented to the customer for validation to ensure that it meets their specific needs.

3. Prepare the printed document

Export file: Export the design file to a format suitable for printing (such as PDF, EPS, etc.).

Ensure file resolution and color patterns meet printing requirements.

Add necessary marks: According to the requirements of the printing plant, add the necessary printing marks such as bleeding lines and cutting lines.

4. Preparation for printing

Select printing materials: According to the safety & warning label environment and durability requirements, select the appropriate printing materials and adhesive materials. These materials should be resistant to water, oil and chemicals.

Printing machine commissioning: The printing plant commissioning the printing machine to ensure printing quality and color accuracy.

5. Printing process

Up-plate printing: Upload the prepared printing document to the printing press for up-plate operation. Adjust printing parameters as needed, such as ink volume, pressure, etc.

Quality control: Quality monitoring is carried out during the printing process to ensure that each label complies with the standard. Check the operation status and printing effect of the printing press regularly.

6. Post-processing and inspection

Cut and fold (if applicable) : Cut and fold printed safety & warning labels to meet specific shape and size requirements.

Quality inspection:

Quality inspection of the cut safety & warning label to ensure that there are no defects, no printing and other problems.

Check that the information on the label is complete and accurate.
