International Market Requirements for Labels at Conveyor Industries

Posted by Clarion Safety Systems | 7th Jun 2019

Best Practice Equipment Safety Labels in Material Handling Industries
In today’s workplaces, labels on equipment and signage within the workplace are a key component in communicating about hazards and mitigating risk. Yet, companies often struggle with keeping labels and signs up-to-date and consistent. Without effective warnings in place – ones that comply with OSHA/ANSI/ISO and effectively reinforce behavior – the lives of your workers could be at risk.

A Global System for Safety Labels
Material handling equipment, like conveyors, is used in hundreds of industries worldwide. Facilities all over the world rely on complex conveyor systems to manufacture, package and sort products. In addition, the materials, containers and products often need to be transported from one point to another within these worldwide facilities. This means the involvement of energized moving parts and machinery can result in the possibility of injury if the equipment is used incorrectly. When a major, international leader in material handling and logistics automation decided they needed a global system of safety labels, they knew they couldn’t rely on just any company or any printer for the solution.

Clarion Safety’s Fix: A Label Program That Meets ANSI and ISO Standards
With design and manufacturing expertise, Clarion Safety was the right choice to create and supply an upgraded label program to meet international market requirements. Clarion Safety's active involvement in the U.S. and international safety label standards and cross-industry experience meant that Clarion Safety was able to not only produce all-new label designs to meet current best practices, but to unify all labels across the company’s divisions and markets. The new labels feature innovative use of the latest American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards, state-of-the-art symbols and premium quality materials. Now the company has a consistent, cutting-edge safety label system that communicates across language barriers to better protect the people who install, use and service their conveyors worldwide. Communicating safety to keep people from harm – there’s nothing more important.
