The Industry's Favourite Reference Standards Packaging Just Got Better

摘要

Effective immediately, Restek (USA) will be transitioning away from NFPA~* to universally recognised GHS labeling for our reference standards. GHS, or the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, is a set of provisions for hazard classification and communication developed by the United Nations. Its goal is to universally label products that can be opened, thus exposing users to the materials contained within, in a way that clearly identifies any potential safety concerns regardless of the user's language, country, or background. Efforts to implement GHS labeling have begun around the globe; for the United States in particular, OSHA will require that products shipped after June 1, 2015, carry universally recognised GHS labeling to ensure safety regulation compliance.
