All signs are compliant with the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations, REACH, and CLP (Classification, Labelling and Packaging) standards. These frameworks ensure that substances are clearly labelled with the appropriate hazard symbols, colours, and wording to meet UK and international safety requirements.
SMI can produce custom hazardous substance signs to meet unique site requirements - including additional text, company branding, or multilingual versions to support international teams. To discuss bespoke designs, contact the team.
