Minerva Help - GHS/CLP Classifications

GHS/CLP Classifications

Listed below are all of the classifications and categories that appear in the UN GHS Framework, with the hazard statement and pictogram for both the GHS MSDS and the transport pictogram's.

Notes:

The highlighted rows are in the UN GHS Framework but have not been implemented within the EU.
The transport pictogram's are only used on labels on the outside of a single box/drum or on the wrapping of the pallets. The transport pictogram's can replace the relevant GHS/CLP pictogram's on the pallet labels or are stuck onto the wrapping as well.
