Laser Symbol (Roll of 100 Labels) - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Laser symbol labels are essential safety signs used to warn individuals of the presence of laser radiation, which can be harmful to eyes and skin. The label features a yellow triangle with a black laser beam symbol, making it highly visible and easily recognised. These labels are used to prevent accidental exposure to laser energy, which can cause serious injuries—particularly to eyesight, as even brief exposure to some laser classes can lead to permanent damage.

Commonlyused in laboratories, manufacturing plants, medical facilities, construction sites, and research institutions, where laser equipment is used for cutting, measuring, scanning, surgery, or alignment. For instance, in a metal fabrication workshop, lasers may be used for precision cutting; in hospitals, they’re used in dermatology or eye surgeries; and in construction, laser levels guide structural alignment. These labels are vital wherever Class 1 through Class 4 lasers are in use, especially the more hazardous Class 3B and Class 4.

The main reason to use laser symbol labels is to warn and protect. Exposure to high-powered lasers can result in serious injuries, and in some cases, even low-power lasers can cause harm under specific conditions. By clearly marking areas, devices, or access points with laser hazard labels, organisations fulfill safety obligations and reduce the risk of accidents. These labels are often required under health and safety regulations, such as the UK’s Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations 2010

These labels are typically applied directly on the laser equipment, near access doors to laser-controlled areas, or on control panels and viewing windows. They help enforce access restrictions and ensure that only trained, properly equipped personnel interact with the equipment. Overall, laser symbol labels are a critical component of a workplace’s optical radiation safety strategy, ensuring both compliance and personal protection.
