Pipe Marking and Labels
Meet the Regulation Standards!
The Health and Safety (Signs & Signals) Regulations 1996 Part 3 require all employers to identify any pipes conveying dangerous substances. Several norms exist across Europe, which indicate how pipes should be identified. Pipes transporting dangerous and hazardous substances must be identified with the relevant danger symbol and the name of the hazardous or dangerous substance.
Safety first!
Unmarked pipes are a danger to both life and property. Accidents, injuries and damage to equipment can be caused by people not knowing what individual pipes contain.
The economical choice!
By correctly identifying pipes, errors can be prevented. Accidents caused by negligence lead to both physical and psychological grief and often cost companies large amounts of money.
Save time!
The correct identification of pipes ensures a better insight into a buildings structure – and gaining such an insight with speed and clarity is of vital importance for new employees and temporary staff. It will also make maintenance work easier and prevent time-consuming searches. If an accident does occur, correct identification can help to save valuable time - and even lives.
