Declarations on detergents and chemical products for domestic use

Many laundry detergents and chemical products for household use are marked with safety marks. Declarations are a guide to the consumer that the product can be harmful to use either for himself or for the environment.

It is therefore important that the danger symbols is accurate in both size and location choice of words. Danger marks shall be visible to the consumer. Danger Tags must also be indelible, and there are requirements for how great danger marks must be compared to the size of the package.

Labelling is mandatory at some detergents

If a product must have hazard label depends on the ingredients, but also of how the various components interact. This may mean that two ingredients that are not in themselves triggering a hazard labeling can still trigger a hazard labeling if they are combined in one product.

If one must have a hazard label on his product, there is a typical general rules for how large a danger label should be. It depends on the size of the package, and it has to be very small packages before one can reasonably argue that the danger labels must be less than the law specifies.
