GHS Rev 5 Specifications
Applications
& Singapore SS586:2008
Most countries have adopted GHS Rev 5 as part of their standard framework for
labelling of storage and transport of hazardous sustances.
GHS Rev 5 is the basis of Singapore SS586, part 1-3 : 2008. The implementation of
this standard is now in its last phase, with the mandatory marking of all hazardous
substances, including mixtures.
While SS586 is mostly related to road transport, with requirement for Transport
Emergency Information Panels [TEIPs), and container storage with Storage Emergency
Information Panels (SEIPs), GHS Rev 5 apply to all ways of storing and transporting such
substances. More specificaly, rule 1.4.10.5.5.1 “Workplace labelling” explicity states
that GHS labels should be applied to “piping systems including valves” and that
such installations should ensure clear hazard communication through the “use of
displays with GHS symbols, colour and signal words in piping systems and processing
equipments”.

Materials
BENMARK pipe markers use German manufactured 100 micron thick pressure-sensi-
tive polyacrylate permanent adhesive vinyl sticker for their substrate.
BENMARK pipe markers are printed using solvent inks for outdoor durability, with the
printed graphics sandwidched between the substrate and the overlamination for
maximum protection.

Parts Details
Markers dimensions & packing
BENMARK pipe markers come as individual pieces, already cut to your pipe
dimensions, thus simplifying your installation and reducing your total cost.
For markers of dimensions below 80cm, they come as flat pieces. Above, they are
rolled around a thick cardboard core for easier storage.
Markers Design
For such custom design, we use our inhouse marker generator software to quickly
submit Final Artwork for approval before proceeding for manufacturing. When
required and quantity justify it, we will rush a small batch of actual samples for your
assessment.

Valve Tags, Usage
Perfect complement to our Pipe markers, BENMARK valve tags allow quick
identification of the valve or equipment and can be customized to include
specific information in addition to tag ID/no, ex: “Normally Open/Normally
Close”..
BENMARK valve tags are laser engraved on laserable dual colour ABS plastic,
with the following range of color combinations:
Each design include a hole for installation using your choice of nylon ties,
stainless steel “S” hooks or beaded chain.
Each valve tags include three lines of text or your own custom artwork (logo,
symbols etc).
BENMARK Engraved Tags are laser engraved on laserable dual colour ABS
plastic. For color combinations see opposite page.
They come with industrial acrylic tape premounted on the back side for eas-
ier installation.
BENMARK Engraved Tags are custom-made for your dimensions and artwork.
Maximum Engraveable area: 800mm x 600mm.
Minimum engraved details: 50microns.
