If you need to stock up on ANSI labels, we at Label Source can help - we stock an extensive variety of ANSI safety labels, which can be used to identify the following hazards (among others):
- High voltages
- Crush hazards / pinch points
- Harmful chemicals
- Hot surfaces
- Environments that necessitate the use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
All of our ANSI labels are made of self-adhesive vinyl with a clear polyester laminate. The labels are available in two different sizes (25mm x 50mm and 50mm x100mm), and we supply them in packs of 100 labels each.
What is ANSI?
ANSI stands for the American National Standards Institute. This organisation is responsible for a huge number of different standards in use throughout the United States; they also work to co-ordinate American standards with international standards to ensure that products manufactured in the USA can be used in other countries.
Our ANSI Safety Labels
The labels in our ANSI range are specifically made to comply with the American National Standards Institute's guidelines for health and safety labelling. Each one looks something like this:
The top-right part of the label will usually say WARNING, DANGER or CAUTION. Underneath this is a description of the hazard in question (e.g. 'Pinch point') and/or a set of safety instructions for those who might come into contact with this hazard (e.g. 'Keep hands clear'). The left-hand side of the label is occupied by a universally-recongisable hazard warning symbol; these symbols are identical to those used in the United Kingdom and the EU in accordance with ISO EN 1710 and the Safety Signs and Signals Regulations 1996.
