D.O.T. HMR 49 CFR Parts 171-180 is the Department of Transportation regulation to help your facility avoid fines, road accidents, damaged products and stay OSHA compliant. Need help looking for products or information that comply with DOT guidelines? Check out our Compliance Resource site! Here is a breakdown of the main categories:
- DOT Labels and DOT Shipping Labels- These ensure that products reach their destination without costly fines and rejections. They clearly identify the material to be sure your packages will be handled properly, based on EPA and D.O.T. specifications and regulations. Available in two materials (i.e. Standard or Super-Stik Vinyl) to fit your company’s needs.
- Hazardous Waste Labels- Clearly identify the contents of drums and barrels. These help your employees know the status of the contents they’re working with by combining EPA and DOT requirements onto one label. Easily mark your shipping or hazardous material information with pen or marker. Choice of Standard or Super-Stik Vinyl.
- Placards & Placard Holders- Placards comply with DOT guidelines concerning proper size and wording. The number in the lower corner specifies the hazard class. Choose from a wide variety of stock wordings in four materials (i.e. permanent vinyl, removable vinyl, semi-rigid plastic or flexible magnetic) or create your own custom version with your text and graphics.
- Vehicle Conspicuity Tapes- Prevent accidents by properly marking your vehicle and attract immediate attention to it. These high-grade reflectivity tapes meet regulation standards. Choose from various colors and sizes to fit your specific vehicle safety policy.
