A detail worth checking

This is not a universal “caution” icon; classification determines whether it belongs on a chemical label.

Useful to know

Is this a complete chemical label?

No. Classification determines the required pictograms, signal word and statements; these files provide only the graphic. Keep the approved label information together.

Does downloading the artwork give me permission to use it?

Use the responsible organisation’s specification and any applicable licensing terms. A reference image does not establish product approval.
