Fragile Glass this Way Up - Labels (Roll of 250) - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Used to indicate that a package contains fragile glass items and must be kept upright. Their primary purpose is to prevent damage during transportation, handling, and storage by alerting handlers to the delicate nature of the contents and the correct orientation for safe movement.

The main reason for using these labels is protection of glass items such as mirrors, glassware, windows, or laboratory equipment. Glass can easily break if the package is dropped, tilted, or handled incorrectly. By clearly marking both the fragility and the proper upright position, the labels help reduce accidents, breakage, and potential injury to handlers.

From a logistics and operational perspective, these labels support professional shipping practices and help businesses maintain high standards of care during transit. They ensure that warehouse staff, couriers, and recipients are aware of the package’s contents and handle it with the appropriate caution. This reduces replacement costs, delays, and customer complaints.

These labels are typically used on parcels, cartons, crates, and containers containing glass or fragile items that must remain upright. They are placed prominently on multiple sides of the package, including the top, to ensure visibility from any angle. In these locations, the labels act as a proactive warning, protecting the contents from damage and promoting safe, careful handling throughout the supply chain.
