Dangerous Goods Labels

Collection: Dangerous Goods Labels

Storemasta Dangerous Goods Diamond labels are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of AS 1216, so you can meet your safety and compliance obligations.

There are 9 different dangerous goods classes, with some of these classes also containing subdivisions. The specific risks associated with dangerous goods differ from class to class. Therefore,  all dangerous goods storage facilities must be marked with the correct dangerous goods labels and hazard sigange. 

The Australian Dangerous Goods Code outlines the requirements for dangerous goods labels in accordance to their primary and subsidiary risk. This Dangerous Goods sSgnage must be used on packages, storage facilities, unit loads and freight containers.

In addition to your Dangerous Goods Label, you may also need to install Hazard Signs, or Hazchem safety signs, to warn staff, customers and visitors to the hazards present in your workplace. If you have installed emergency eyewash and safety showers at your site, you will also need to erect Emergency Equipment Signage.

What sizes are available for DG signs?

Yes, DG signs come in a range of sizes with the Storemasta collection offering dangerous goods symbols from 100 x 100 to 300 x 300 in size. You can purchase a dangerous goods sign for your storage or handling areas. Alternatively, you may keep extra signage onsite for fuss-free DG sign replacements.

Why do I need dangerous goods symbols?

Due to the hazards associated with each class and division of dangerous goods, these substances must be easily identified by staff and other personnel in the work environment. Therefore, placarding areas where there are dangerous goods is an essential safety precaution which raises awareness about the hazards onsite. Dangerous Goods Signage must be clearly visible and in good condition so staff can be warned about the hazardous goods in the work area.

Are Dangerous Goods Signs compliant?

Storemasta's range of Dangerous Goods Signs offer durability, safety and compliance. The range of Dangerous Good Signs includes diamonds for every class from Class 1 Explosives to Class 9 Miscellaneous Goods, all made to meet the requirements of the Australian Standards AS 1216.

Do I need to replace damaged Dangerous Goods Signs?

Yes, to ensure compliance and safety, all Dangerous Goods Signs and Hazchem Signs must be installed and maintained. Without a visible, intact sign, your team won't be able to clearly identify the dangerous goods in your workplace, which may lead to harmful incidents. We recommend regularly inspecting your DG signs and danger signs, replacing them with new signage when applicable.
