Built from SDS sections 1 and 2Secondary container · ready to print

Labels fail at the secondary container. The drum from the supplier arrives labeled; the spray bottle, the day tank and the portioned pail it gets decanted into often carry a marker-pen name or nothing at all. Hand-made labels drift from the safety data sheet, miss a pictogram, or keep the hazards of a formulation the supplier has since changed - and Hazard Communication is among the standards OSHA cites most often.

What it does

Every label element pulled from the SDS

Product identifier, signal word, hazard statements, pictograms and precautionary statements come from the sheet's identification and hazard identification sections, so the label says what the SDS says instead of what someone remembered.

Secondary-container and workplace formats

Print a full GHS-style label for secondary containers, or a workplace label with the product identifier and the hazard information HazCom allows for containers that stay in your facility.

Batch printing to standard label stock

Print one label or a run for every container in an area, sized to standard label stock, so labeling a new storage room is a print job rather than an afternoon with a template.

The same record as your SDS library

Labels are generated from the sheets already in your SDS library, so the label on the container and the sheet an employee looks up are built from the same data.

Common questions

Does OSHA require labels on secondary containers?
Yes. Under the Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200(f)(6)), each container of a hazardous chemical in the workplace must carry either the same information as the shipped-container label or the product identifier plus words, pictures or symbols that give at least general information about its hazards. There are two exceptions: stationary process containers can be identified with signs, placards, process sheets, batch tickets or operating procedures instead of individual labels, and a portable container filled from a labeled container for the immediate use of the employee who made the transfer does not need a label.
What has to appear on a GHS label?
A label on a shipped container must show the product identifier, a signal word, hazard statements, pictograms, precautionary statements, and the name, address and phone number of the chemical manufacturer, importer or other responsible party. The hazard elements come from Section 2 of the safety data sheet, and the product identifier and supplier details from Section 1. Since OSHA's 2024 update, very small containers (100 ml or less) may carry a shortened label, with the full information on the outer package.
Are workplace labels the same as shipping labels?
Not necessarily. Shipping labels are the responsibility of the manufacturer, importer or distributor. Workplace labels are the employer's, and HazCom lets them use a more flexible format for containers that stay on site, provided employees can get the specific hazard information from the SDS and the rest of the HazCom program. DOT transport labels are a separate requirement again.
