Limited Quantity (Roll of 100 Labels) - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Used to identify packages or containers that hold hazardous materials in quantities small enough to be subject to reduced regulatory requirements during transportation. These labels indicate that the shipment complies with specific rules allowing limited amounts of dangerous goods to be transported with simplified documentation and handling procedures, helping balance safety with practicality.

The primary reason for using “Limited Quantity” labels is to ensure safe and compliant transport of hazardous materials while minimising regulatory burdens. By clearly marking packages that contain limited quantities, carriers and handlers can recognize the special conditions that apply, such as less stringent packaging standards or exemptions from certain documentation requirements, without compromising safety.

These labels are typically applied to boxes, drums, or containers used in shipping chemicals, flammable liquids, aerosols, or other regulated substances in small amounts. They are commonly used by manufacturers, distributors, and logistics companies involved in the supply chain of hazardous goods, especially in industries like pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and laboratory supplies.

Using “Limited Quantity” labels helps companies comply with transportation regulations such as those from the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), or the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code. This promotes safety, ensures proper handling, and facilitates smoother logistics by clearly communicating the nature and quantity limits of the hazardous materials involved.
