This item is not kept in stock. Please allow 5 days for delivery.

These hazard labels identify class 7 radioactive material packages classified in category I-White, the category for packages with the lowest radiation. The category is determined by the consignor based on the radiation level measured at the package surface and the transport index. Each 4 X 4 in label shows the black trefoil on a white background, the RADIOACTIVE heading followed by one red bar, bilingual CONTENTS / CONTENU and ACTIVITY / ACTIVITÉ lines to fill in, and the number 7. Made in Canada, they are sold in rolls of 500.

Features of the Radioactive I-White labels

• Black trefoil on a white background, RADIOACTIVE heading and one red bar (category I).
• Bilingual lines to fill in: contents and activity.
• 4 X 4 in (10.16 X 10.16 cm) format, class number 7.
• Roll of 500 labels, handy at the shipping station.
• Heavy water-resistant gloss paper for indoor use, or PVC-free synthetic for indoor and outdoor use, both with permanent adhesive.
• Compliant, according to the manufacturer, with Transport Canada's TDG Regulations.

Available formats: roll of 500 in paper or synthetic

Radioactive I-White labels applications

These labels are intended for nuclear medicine departments and radiopharmacies, laboratories, non-destructive testing companies and users of portable nuclear gauges who ship class 7 packages. Paper suits boxes kept under cover; synthetic holds better on cases and packages that travel outdoors. Depending on the measured radiation, also choose category II-Yellow (code ERRAD-II) or III-Yellow (code ERRAD-III).

For the vehicle, complete your display with the 10-3/4 X 10-3/4 in class 7 radioactive materials placard (ECLA7).

Radioactive I-White labels technical specifications

Completing and affixing Radioactive White-I labels

Fill in the contents and activity lines with a permanent marker before applying. Where this labelling is required, affix two labels on opposite sides of the package or overpack, not on its resting or stacking faces. Freight containers and tanks require labelling on all four sides. Apply each label flat on a clean, dry surface. Keep the roll in its packaging, away from moisture and heat, until use.

FAQ: Radioactive I-White labels

How do I know whether category I, II or III is required?

The category depends on the radiation level measured at the package surface and on the transport index. The consignor determines it; it cannot be chosen by eye.

What must be written on the label?

The contents, that is the name of the radionuclide, and the activity, on the bilingual lines provided.

What is the difference between this label and a placard?

The 4 X 4 in label identifies the package. The larger placard is displayed on the vehicle. Depending on the shipment, both may be required.

Paper or synthetic: which should I choose?

The water-resistant paper is intended for indoor use. PVC-free synthetic suits indoor and outdoor use, for cases and packages exposed to the weather.

Do the labels comply with the TDG Regulations?

According to the manufacturer, yes. Always check the requirements that apply to your shipment.

Suggestions for shipping radioactive materials

Need complementary safety equipment for handling closed packages? Consider the glasses (YAS1101) with Solus anti-fog lenses, the gloves (GS13TAFNT) with TenActiv cut protection for handling, the boots (VC18820) with Dunlop steel toe protection, the kneepads (VG101) with hard shells for work at floor level, and the vest (VV50) for high visibility. Select PPE through the risk assessment, not from the hazard class alone.This PPE does not protect against irradiation.

Under “Accessories” at the bottom of the page. Looking for complementary equipment? Consider the cones (EPTCONE36) in the 36 in size for marking from a safe area, the removable reflectors (EPTR) for marking a stopped vehicle, and the road safety kit (TR16) to complete vehicle supplies.These suggestions are not a response equipment list for a leak.Do not touch a damaged package: stay clear and call the emergency number on the shipping document.
