Consumer Product Symbols
Many products are made and packaged as household or consumer products, and their labelling is slightly different. Because household products often get used in the workplace – it’s important to be familiar with these hazard symbols as well. Just because they are made for household use does not make these products any safer. Examples of consumer products:
- Drain cleaner
- Window cleaner
- Cleaners / disinfectants
