standard wording shall be replaced by 'contains crocidolite/blue asbestos'.
3.
If labelling takes the form of direct printing on the products, a single colour
contrasting with the background colour shall be sufficient.
4.
In case of the products produced in the Czech Republic and intended to be
placed on the market in its territory, the labelling may be dispensed from
the requirements of Points 1 and 2. The labelling of these products must
however bear the wording 'contains asbestos'.
5.
The label shall be affixed in accordance with the following rules:
(a)
on each of the smallest units/components supplied;
(b)
if a product has asbestos-based components, it is sufficient for
these components only to bear the label. The labelling may be
dispensed with if smallness of size or unsuitability of packaging
make it impossible for a label to be affixed to the component.
6.

a label firmly affixed to the product containing asbestos,

a (tie-on) label securely attached to such product,

direct printing on the products,
or, if the abovementioned is not reasonably practicable or suitable as in the
case of, for example, smallness of size of the product, the unsuitable nature

Supplement 9 to Government Regulation No. 232/2004 Coll.
Labelling of some groups of dangerous substances and dangerous
preparations
1. Dangerous substances
1.1 Mobile gas cylinders
For mobile gas cylinders the requirements concerning labelling are considered to be satisfied when they are in agreement with the provisions of
§ 20(4) of the Act or § 22(1)(b) of the Act.
One of the following alternatives can be used for gas cylinders with a water
capacity of less than or equal to 150 litres:

the format and dimensions of the label meet the requirements of
the ČSN Standard ISO 7225 (07 8501) – 'Gas cylinders - Precautionary labels'

the information specified in § 20(4) of the Act may be provided
on a durable information disc or label held captive on the cylinder.
1.2 Gas containers intended for propane, butane or liquefied petroleum
gas (LPG)
These substances are classified in the List in Supplement 1. Although classified in accordance with the Act as dangerous, they do not present a danger
to human health when they are placed on the market in closed refillable cylinders or in non-refillable cartridges within the scope of ČSN EN 417 (69
8417) as fuel gases which are only released for combustion (ČSN EN 417
(69 8417) "Non-refillable metallic gas cartridges for liquefied petroleum
gases, with or without a valve, for use with portable appliances. Construction, inspection, testing and marking").
These metal vessels must be labelled appropriately as concerns flammability
according to § 20(4)(c), (d) and (e) of the Act. No information concerning
the effects on human health is required on the label.
1.3 Metals in massive form
These substances are classified in Supplement 1 or shall be classified in accordance with §3 of this Act. However, some of these substances, although
classified as dangerous under this Act, do not present a danger to human
health by inhalation, ingestion or contact with skin or to the aquatic environment in the form in which they are placed on the market. Such substances do not require a label according to § 20(4) of the Act.
1.4 Substances classified with R65
Substances classified as harmful on the basis of an aspiration hazard need
not be labelled as harmful with R65 when placed on the market in aerosol
containers or in containers fitted with a sealed spray attachment.
Annex to Part 76
Collection of Law No. 232/2004

2. Dangerous preparations
2.1 Mobile cylinders for gaseous preparations (gas mixtures)
For mobile gas cylinders the requirements concerning labelling are considered to be satisfied when they are in agreement with the provisions of §
22(1)(b) of the Act.
Mobile gas cylinders with a water capacity of less than or equal to 150 litres
may be labelled differently from the provisions of provisions of § 21(2) of
the Act, if the format and dimensions of the label meet the requirements of
the ČSN Standard ISO 7225 (07 8501) – 'Gas cylinders - Precautionary labels'. In this case, the label can bear the generic name or industrial/commercial name of the preparation provided that the dangerous component substances of the preparation are shown on the body of the gas cylinder in a clear and indelible way.
The information specified in § 20(5) of the Act may be provided on a durable information disc or label held captive on the cylinder.
2.2 Gas containers intended for preparations containing stenched propane, butane or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
Propane, butane and liquefied petroleum gas are classified in the List of
Supplement 1. Although the preparations containing these substances are
classified in accordance with the Act, they do not present a danger to human health when they are placed on the market in closed refillable cylinders
or non-refillable cartridges within the scope of ČSN EN 417 (69 8417) as
fuel gases which are only released for combustion (ČSN EN 417 (69 8417)
"Non-refillable metallic gas cartridges for liquefied petroleum gases, with or
without a valve, for use with portable appliances. Construction, inspection,
testing and marking").
These metal vessels must be labelled appropriately as concerns flammability
according to § 20(4) of the Act. No information concerning the effects on
human health is required on the label.
2.3 Alloys, preparations containing polymers, preparations containing
elastomers
These preparations shall be classified according to the Act.
However, some of these preparations although classified in accordance with
the Act do not present a danger to human health by inhalation, ingestion or
contact with the skin or to the aquatic environment in the form in which
they are placed on the market. Such preparations do not require a label according to § 20(5) of the Act or Supplement 10, Part A, Point 9.
2.4 Preparations classified with R65
These preparations shall be classified according to the Act.
Annex to Part 76
Collection of Law No. 232/2004

Preparations classified as harmful on the basis of an aspiration hazard need
not be labelled as harmful with R65 when placed on the market in aerosol
containers or in containers fitted with a sealed spray attachment.

The packaging of preparations containing at least one substance classified
as sensitising and being present in a concentration ≥ 0.1% or in a concentration greater than or equal to that specified under a specific note for the
substance in the List of Supplement 1 must bear the inscription:
'Contains (name of sensitising substance). May produce an allergic reaction'.
Note. The chemical name of the sensitising substance must be shown in the
format of one of the names as set out in the List of Supplement 1; if the
substance is not listed in the List, then the chemical name of the sensitising
substance must be shown in accordance with the internationally recognised
nomenclature.
In case of the concentrated preparations used for the production of perfumes in the cosmetic industry, it is possible to show only one sensitising
substance, which is deemed to be the major reason for the sensitisation
danger. In case of the natural substances, the chemical name may be of the
following type: 'essential oil made of …', extract from …', instead of the
name of components of the relevant essential oil or extract.
