hazmat labels

Skull, flame, corrosion icons

Hazmat labels are standardized warning symbols affixed to containers, vehicles, or packages carrying hazardous materials.

The diamond-shaped labels use colors, numbers, and pictograms to indicate danger types—flammable, corrosive, radioactive, explosive, toxic.

Emergency responders rely on them to assess risks quickly: The hazmat labels told firefighters what chemicals were inside the overturned tanker.
