Hazardous Chemical Signs

Hazardous Chemical Signs are used to warn employees, contractors and visitors about the presence of dangerous substances that may pose risks to health, safety or the environment. They help identify chemical hazards and promote safe handling, storage and use of hazardous materials.

Also known as chemical hazard signs, chemical warning signs, COSHH signs and hazardous substance signs, these signs are commonly used in workplaces where chemicals, solvents, cleaning products, gases or industrial substances are present.

Hazardous chemical signage is widely used in factories, warehouses, laboratories, schools, hospitals, construction sites and manufacturing facilities. Common installation locations include chemical stores, COSHH cabinets, laboratories, mixing areas, storage compounds and production environments.

Manufactured in the UK, our hazardous chemical signs are available in self-adhesive vinyl, rigid plastic and aluminium to provide clear hazard identification in both indoor and outdoor locations.
