As part of a programme of measures to tackle noise pollution, some 47 types of appliances need to be clearly marked with their decibel output during operation, as part of the Noise Emission Directive 2000/14/EC (The Noise Emission in the Environment by Equipment for Outdoor Regulations, 2001).
These include appliances and equipment powered by diesel or petrol, pneumatic or electrical, for use in construction, in civil engineering, forestry, parks and gardens, to control sound power levels.
Common products to be marked with their noise output levels include lawn mowers, trimmers, chain saws, shredders and chippers; dumpers, excavators, concrete mixers, aerial access platforms and mobile cranes; drills, jack hammers, sanders, arc welders, compactors and refuse collection vehicles.
Label Source has supplied many custom printed labels for product applications, not only including noise emission levels, but also company logos and contact details, CE marking, model numbers or serial numbers. These have been manufactured in a range of pressure sensitive labels in pvc or polyester, and in metals (aluminium or stainless steel), with surface laminates and coatings, all suitable for outdoor use. If you require a quotation please contact us by e-mail (sales@labelsource.co.uk) or by telephone 0800 3761693 (in UK) or +44 1443 842769 (outside UK).
