 Over 30 medical and health care workers die each year as the result of HIV exposure. Another 250 workers are claimed by Hepatitis-B infections. Our mission is to help warn against this pervasive, often hidden and deadly hazard. Certainly, you must start with training and preventative measures. Work practice and engineering controls, such as biohazard hoods, puncture-resistant sharps containers, mechanical pipette devices, permanent removal of the hazard or isolation of workers from possible exposure, are all essential. Yet, biohazard labels and signs are also essential. They are often your last defense. This site specializes in biohazard labels, biohazard warning signs and tags. Adhere biohazard labels on the containers or biohazard storage equipment (such as a storage cabinets, waste containers, waste bags, evidence bags, freezers / refrigerators, etc.) that may include toxins or organisms that cause disease. Experimental animals or incubators are also labeled or identified. It is important that biohazard labels help prevent workers from keeping food or drink in refrigerators, on top of countertops or bench tops where blood or other potentially infectious materials are present. Use Biohazard Signs on doors that contain these biohazards. Warn workers and other visitors to the danger. We offer a range of signs, from architecture-designed modular signs to conspicuous fluorescent signs or a magnetic biohazard sign for cabinets. Be sure to also visit our site dedicated entirely to Biohazard Labels.
