ADR Packaging Labels & Marks

Correct labelling of dangerous goods is a legal obligation for consignors, carriers, and logistics providers under the {Link: ADR Agreement https://unece.org}. This applies to individual packages, such as steel drums, plastic jerrycans, and outer packaging like cartons, boxes, or gas cylinders in road transport.

Unlike vehicle placards (25x25 cm), ADR package labels are typically 10x10 cm (100x100 mm), applied directly to the item to identify hazard classes for workers and emergency services.

This collection offers durable, compliant ADR stickers and marks for various hazardous materials.

Dangerous Goods Packaging Requirements

Packages must clearly display:

• UN Number: (e.g., UN 1203) for substance identification.
• Hazard Label: Corresponding to Classes 1-9.
• Environmental Marks: E.g., "Dead Tree and Fish" or orientation arrows.

Select the correct label based on Section 14 of the substance's Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Consignor and Consignee Details (Limited Quantity - LQ)

Under Section 3.4 of the ADR Agreement (Limited Quantities / LQ), if sender/receiver details are not present, they must be included on the 100x100 mm LQ mark.

We provide standard LQ marks with blank fields for manual writing, as well as custom overprinting services, which can pre-print your company's details directly onto the labels for improved warehouse efficiency.
