                   Unknown properties

Note: For examples 6(a) and 6(b), a generic name in accordance with Appendix C should be used, as chemical structures are difficult to communicate in the event of an incident.

    c)      In the following example, neither the identity nor the hazardous properties of the substance are known.

Example 7: Example labels for a substance not otherwise classifiable under the GHS.
The following two example labels are for carbon dioxide (dry ice). Dry ice does not meet any of the hazard categories of the GHS, and therefore cannot be assigned any label elements. However there are health and safety issues associated with the handling, use and storage of dry ice and information on these hazards should be included on labels.
    a)      The following label meets road transport labelling requirements. It also meets workplace labelling requirements as it includes other health and safety information that are applicable to its workplace storage, handling and use.

CARBON DIOXIDE, SOLID (dry ice)

Asphyxiation hazard:
Use only in well ventilated area
Wear gloves and eye protection
