The Nalgene Right-to-Know custom labeling system will help your lab comply with chemical safely labeling requirements. Made from our plastic paper material, these labels are rip and tear proof, and resistant to deterioration from chemical exposure. The system incorporates GHS-compliant symbology.
Nalgene safety-labeled wash bottles help your laboratory meet regulatory requirements for labeling chemical containers in the workplace. Globally Harmonized System (GHS) symbology is used on on all our labeled wash bottles to provide instantly recognizable hazard warnings for commonly-used laboratory chemicals. Nalgene Right-to-Know wash bottles incorporate the standard US Department of Transportation (DOT), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and International Chemical Society (ISC) formula information. The new Right-to-Understand wash bottles strictly follow Globally Harmonized System (GHS) labeling standards with no other system labelling or symbology represented. This avoids potential confusion caused when different and conflicting standards are depicted on the same bottle.
