Introduction
The purpose of using precautionary labels on gas cylinders is to facilitate the identification of each cylinder and its
content and to warn of the principal hazards associated with the said contents. Such labels can also serve to give
other essential information such as the name and chemical formula of the gas or gas mixture and supplementary
instructions on precautionary measures.
