Have you spotted these yet? These are new Battery Marks for Sodium Ion Batteries and those packed in or with equipment: Are your Hazard Labels Compliant? The international, multimodal regulations require hazard labels to be able to withstand open weather exposure without a substantial reduction in effectiveness. However, it can be difficult to know when a roll of shiny labels is delivered whether they are compliant, at least not without testing them. There are a lot of substandard labels for sale online and, at Labeline we not only test our own but other suppliers too. This picture shows three labels that were placed on an outside wall of Labeline’s warehouse and left for just three weeks. The red Class 3 label is Labeline’s which has been produced with a gloss laminate and BS5609 adhesive. The other two are from a company whose website is high ranking on search engines and carries the claim: “All our Dangerous Goods Labels are fully compatible with IATA/ ICAO, UNADR/RID and IMDG/IMO requirements.” The costs imposed by forwarders for having incorrect, or no labels, can run into hundreds of pounds, never mind the additional delays and customer dissatisfaction from shipments getting snagged.
