• Pre-printed GHS and NFPA color diamonds with red diamonds — Save time and reduce mistake-prone manual drawing. The label ships with the critical color-coded pictograms already in place, so you only fill in the required fields. If certain pictograms aren’t relevant for your use case, you can easily black out the unnecessary pictograms in the LabelSuite design software, ensuring compliance without clutter. This means faster labeling workflows and consistent hazard communication across facilities.
• Die-cut 3in x 5in vinyl label — A precise, easy-to-mount size that fits common containers, equipment panels, and flat surfaces. The 3x5 inch die-cut shape is optimized for minimal waste and maximum readability, allowing you to apply the label cleanly to metal, plastic, glass, and other common materials without peeling or curling at the edges. The compact footprint makes it ideal for secondary labeling where space is at a premium.
• Durable outdoor vinyl with long-lasting adhesion — Constructed for real-world conditions, this label delivers 5+ years of outdoor performance. It’s designed to endure UV exposure, rain, humidity, and temperature fluctuations, maintaining legibility and color integrity over time. The rugged vinyl backing and permanent adhesive keep the label firmly in place on demanding surfaces, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
• Print in black using LabelSuite software — The design is ready for black-ink printing from your standard printer, enabling a clean, legible output that complements the color-coded background. LabelSuite enables you to customize fields, blackout unused pictograms, and generate a final print that adheres to your company’s safety labeling standards. This workflow supports consistent documentation and audit-ready labeling across multiple shifts or sites.
• Versatile, compliant secondary labeling — Beyond basic hazard communication, this label supports diverse safety programs by combining GHS and NFPA information in one reference label. Its color-diamond system communicates hazard severity at a glance, aiding first responders and workers in quickly assessing risks. The label is suitable for a wide range of environments, from chemical cabinets and drums to process lines and safety stations.

How to install Brother 3in x 5in Color Diamonds Standard Vinyl Die-Cut Secondary GHS Label

• Prepare the surface: Clean the target area with a lint-free cloth and a mild isopropyl-alcohol solution to remove oil, dust, and residue. Allow the surface to dry completely before application to ensure optimal adhesion.
• Prepare the label in LabelSuite: Open the design, fill in required information, and use the software to blackout any pictograms you don’t need. Preview the final layout to verify that all text is legible and that the color diamonds align with the intended hazard information.
• Print the label: Use a compatible printer and select the appropriate print settings to produce a crisp, black-on-vinyl result. Run a test print on a spare label if possible to confirm alignment and legibility before producing a production batch.
• Prepare the label for application: If your label is being peeled from a liner, remove only the backing gradually to prevent curling. If your label is a sheet, cut along the die-cut lines if needed for precise placement before peeling.
• Apply and smooth: Align the label with the surface, then press firmly from the center outward to push out air bubbles. Use a soft roller or squeegee to ensure full contact, especially at the edges. Allow the adhesive to set undisturbed for at least several hours before subjecting the label to heavy use or cleaning.
