Avery AVE60506 Ghs Chemical Labels 2x2 in White Polyester 600

Product Description

The AVERY AVE60506 is a box of 600 white polyester film labels engineered for GHS (Globally Harmonized System) chemical labeling compliance. Each label measures 2 x 2 inches and is constructed from durable polyester film with a high-performance permanent adhesive. The adhesive formulation meets BS5609 certification requirements, including the 90-day seawater immersion standard — a common regulatory benchmark for chemical container labeling. These labels resist chemicals, abrasion, UV exposure, water, extreme temperatures, tearing, and scuffing, making them a reliable choice for hazardous material identification in demanding environments. Safety coordinators, compliance officers, and facilities personnel handling chemical drums, pails, and totes are the primary users.

AVE60506 labels are suited for industrial and commercial chemical labeling applications where regulatory compliance and long-term durability are required. Typical use cases include labeling drums, pails, and totes containing hazardous substances that require GHS-compliant markings. The labels are compatible with standard sheet-fed laser printers, allowing on-site customization with logos, barcodes, pictograms, hazard statements, and other required GHS label elements. Online templates and a GHS Wizard system are supported for label design and formatting.

Installation Notes

Surface preparation is critical for adhesive performance — ensure containers are clean, dry, and free of oils or residue before applying labels. Print labels using a BS5609-compatible laser printer and allow toner to fully cure before applying to containers. Follow applicable workplace safety regulations and GHS labeling requirements when designing and applying chemical identification labels. Labels should be applied in conditions within the adhesive rated temperature range for best initial bond.
