British Standard (BS) 5609 requires that labels submerged in the English Channel must be able to withstand 90 days of submersion and still be legible. If your business must adhere to this standard, our BS 5609 Compliant Labels are designed to meet the requirements of this unique standard. 

Use this to label packages, barrels, and drums, as well as for a variety of other applications that your facility may need if located near or will be shipping products on the ocean. These labels are designed to withstand constant exposure to saltwater and other conditions of a marine environment. 

Our British Standard (BS) 5609 labels are printed with GHS diamonds and are die cut so they are easy to peel off and adhere to drums or other packaging that stores or transports chemicals in marine environments.
