Waste segregation signs can be used to identify and segregate items within your waste stream management programme. There are various different signs to help clearly identify diverse forms of waste. These signs can inform your staff of the correct handling, collection and disposal of various waste types.
Hazardous toxic signs must be displayed to collect and re-processing of waste, which is dangerous to humans and animals, and a threat to the environment. This waste is usually chemical by-products, in liquid, solid or sludge form, which can contain a range of harmful components including heavy metals, halogens, dioxins, asbestos, PCB's, pesticides, or cleaning fluids. If released they can cause illness, death, or pollution to air, land or water.
Radioactive waste must be displayed to identify waste materials contaminated with low level radiation, such as clothing, tools, filters, plastics, metals or glass, which has been exposed to low level radioactive materials.
Here at Label Source we supply a range of signs in sizes medium and large, identifying various different waste, including; domestic waste, non-hazardous general waste, hazardous waste, toxic waste, radioactive waste, clinical waste, food waste, confidential waste, landfill, recyclable solids, recyclable liquids, contaminated solids and liquids. This clear identification of waste by category can enable safe handling, and correct disposal. Part of our environmental sign range.
If you need these signs made up for your own special requirements , Label Source can help you with that!

It is common knowledge that electricity can be dangerous, but the hazards are multiplied when the electrical supply is high voltage. Direct contact with, or being in close proximity of, high voltage infrastructure can pose potential health threats.
Accidents involving sources of high voltage electricity can range from death through electrocution, to electric shock injuries from electrical arcs, internal flash burns, flame burns from ignition of clothing, or injuries from losing body control and falling off equipment.
The overwhelming majority of accidents occur when installing, operating, repairing, inspecting or maintaining power generating plants, power transmission equipment (both overhead power lines or underground cables), at substations, on electrified rail networks, or at oil and gas facilities.
However, the minority can be linked to contact with overhead lines by ladders, antenna, cranes and telescopic overhead plant during construction or maintenance, tree trimming or clearance, and even entangled lines from anglers. Other problem areas are excavations, tunnelling, and mining, when underground electrical cables are damaged or sheared.
Label Source has a range of products to clearly mark dangers from high voltage electrical supply. These can include signs to identify electrical equipment such as transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers, pylons and towers warning of high voltage and danger of death; signs for the mandatory use of protective equipment and safety wear such as hard hats, gloves and rubber soled boot; labels for operating instructions on equipment for termination, cable jointing, pressure testing and fault location; calibration labelling on test instrumentation; and signs and underground warning tapes for buried power cables.
So together using our products we can provide guidance and information to make operating with, and near, high voltage generating and distribution equipment a much safer environment.
When you need to mark hazardous goods or dangerous substances, to ensure safety in the workplace, and protection of the environment, choose from our extensive product range. Label Source has numerous, suitable health and safety signs and labels, complying with the latest legislation, international regulations and best practice.
Whether you handle, process, store or transport hazardous materials in either solid, liquid or gaseous form, it is essential to clearly identify the contents, to protect workers, the emergency services and the general public.
Spills, incidents or accidents can result in injuries, ranging from minor to death, from explosions, fire and chemical burns from dangerous goods. These substances have been classified by the United Nations, and appear in a range of legislation including COSHH (Control of substances hazardous to health), GHS (Global harmonised system of classification) and CLP (Classifying, labelling and packaging regulations).
Therefore, our ranges of labels and signs are suitable for marking chemicals stored in bulk containers, pressure receptacles, tanks, drums, canisters and dispensing equipment, as well as production, storage and handling areas. Workers can be made aware of the risks from the hazardous goods and dangerous substances, such as toxic, corrosive, explosive, oxidising, flammable, irritants and hazards to human health and the environment.
In the course of duty, you may need to stand out from the crowd, whether for drills, actual emergencies or building evacuations. Our hi-viz armbands are ideal, and offer instant recognition, so that you can take control and manage the situation.
These safety armbands are waterproof, lightweight, comfortable, and can be easily adjusted by using the velcro fasteners. They are made of a radiant yellow nylon, with a reflective printed panel, which make them suitable for all lighting conditions.
There are many standard formats to cover control of safety issues, including fire, first aid, security and traffic. Click the following link for the product details: https://www.labelsource.co.uk/label/safety-signs/general-safety-markers/safety-armbands
