Purple Book offers chemical labeling system
Jul 1, 2003 12:00 PM
Labelmaster is providing the new Global Classification and Labeling System for Chemicals, also referred to as The Purple Book. Approved in September 2002 by the United Nations, the new Globally Harmonized System (GHS) protects people from the mismanagement of chemicals, classifies chemicals according to their hazard, and creates a labeling system based on universally understandable pictograms. The GHS will be fully operational by 2008 and will be updated regularly.
