International Maritime Dangerous Good Code (IMDG Code) established by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) stipulates international rules for the safe transportation of dangerous materials by vessels on water. In accordance with the code, Japan has enacted Regulations for the Carriage and Storage of Dangerous Goods by Ship. When transporting dangerous materials by ship, we are obliged to place labels on the objects and containers on board to show their hazard classes.
IMO Classes & Labels
Dangerous substances fall into nine categories – explosives, high-pressure gas, flammable liquids, flammable solids, oxidizing substances, toxic substances, radioactive substances, corrosive substances, and hazardous substances. Different labels are set for each category.
We receive orders for custom-made labels as well as paid service to print UN numbers on label from one single label to as many as needed
