ADR Labels
ADR labels that don't come off the surface
We produce ADR hazard-class transport labeling for trucks, tanks, drums, and packaging from chemical production — by screen printing, with two-component inks made specifically for this purpose.
What is ADR
The European Agreement on Dangerous Goods by Road
ADR (the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road) requires vehicles, tanks, drums, and packaging carrying dangerous goods to display clear, unambiguous hazard-class labeling. That labeling has to stay legible and intact for the entire transport and storage period — not just on the day it was applied.
Why screen printing
The difference between a sticker and a mark
A standard sticker
Adhesive film laid on top of the surface. Abrasion against other drums, contact with solvents or oils, and long-term UV exposure lift the edges, fade the ink, and make the label illegible — right when it matters most.
Screen printing
A two-component ink is pushed through a fine mesh directly onto the material and chemically bonds with it. There's nothing to peel off — the ink is part of the surface. It resists petrol, oils, alcohol, and years outdoors.

Hazard classes
Overview of the main ADR hazard classes
A general overview of the main ADR hazard classes. The exact classification and wording of hazard labels is set by the currently applicable ADR text — consult the applicable legislation or a safety adviser where needed. We handle producing durable, high-quality screen printing to your specification.
