BENEFITS:
GHS stands for the “Globally Harmonized System” of Classification
and Labeling of Chemicals, a world regulation mandate put in place for the
classification and communication of chemical hazards, the goal of which is to improve the
health and safety of workers by reducing injuries, enhancing worker comprehension of chemical
hazards, and saving overall costs through productivity improvements. All manufacturers,
suppliers, and users of chemicals are required to abide by this mandate in their labeling processes, which can be
a problem for organizations who may not understand exactly what is needed to stay safely within compliance
guidelines. That is why RACO is here to provide the equipment, software, and expertise needed to craft a GHS Compliance

• Do your labels look like they properly convey your company’s quality & image?• How many SKU’s do you have?• How many unique label designs do you have?• Are operations struggling to align red diamonds and icons?• Are you spending too much on resin ribbons & print heads?• Do you sell under many different brands?
GHS Label Questions:• Every chemical produces unique hazards.• Each hazard type will now require a unique COLOR pictogram.• The number of pictograms will often vary from label to label.• The number of pictograms must match the number of hazards. No extra symbols or blanks are allowed.• The number of color pre-printed labels required will explode greatly increasing costs and reducing efficiencies.
