ADR Labels and ADR Marking for Road Transport Compliance

The European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) sets strict requirements for the marking of transport units and packages. Complete ADR marking is a legal requirement designed to reduce risks to people and the environment during road transport. We offer a specialized product range including hazardous goods labels, UN number labels, tank vehicle markings, and shipping labels. Our solutions help ensure that all packages, intermediate bulk containers, and vehicles comply with current road transport regulations.

An effective ADR label must remain clearly visible even under challenging conditions such as rain, heat, frost, and prolonged UV exposure. That is why our labels are manufactured from weather- and light-resistant materials with high-performance adhesives. They adhere reliably to rough surfaces, metal containers, and cardboard packaging without detaching during transport. Whether for individual packages or complete load units, our marking products are designed for maximum readability and help you meet the requirements of inspections carried out by transport authorities and law enforcement agencies.

Our product range provides logistics companies and industrial businesses with the right labels for virtually any road transport requirement. We maintain a broad inventory, enabling us to meet urgent and short-notice demands quickly and efficiently. Benefit from certified quality, excellent print performance, and competitive pricing for your fleet and shipping operations.

The road transport of flammable liquids is governed by the provisions of the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). When transporting flammable liquids, transport units and packages must be marked with the Class 3 hazard label. This label features a flame symbol on a red background and indicates the high fire risk associated with the cargo. Where substances are additionally classified as environmentally hazardous, the fish and tree environmental hazard mark must also be displayed. This is often required when transporting fossil fuels or chemical mixtures in larger quantities.

Specialized vehicles such as petrol and diesel tankers are subject to additional equipment and marking requirements. In addition to the Class 3 placards displayed on the sides and rear of the vehicle, and where applicable the environmental hazard mark, orange warning plates must also be fitted. The specific ADR marking required for transporting flammable liquids by road depends on the transport method. While packaged goods transport often uses plain orange plates, tank vehicles require numbered plates displaying the hazard identification number (for example, 30 or 33 for highly flammable liquids) and the relevant UN number (such as UN 1203 for petrol or UN 1202 for diesel).

All marking elements must be securely attached so they remain weather-resistant and do not become detached during transit. We supply all ADR-compliant hazard labels, placards, and orange warning plates for tank vehicles and tank containers. Our certified marking solutions for Class 3 transport meet all applicable ADR requirements. Explore our online shop and equip your vehicle fleet in full compliance with current regulations.
