5、logy3.1 DefinitionsGeneral definitions for packaging and distribution are found in Terminology D996.4. Significance and Use4.1 Packages are often marked with handling instructions in the language of the country of origin. While this may safeguardthe consignment to some extent, it is of little value

6、for goods consigned to, or through, countries using different languages, andof no value at all if people unloading the packages are illiterate. Pictorial symbols offer the most likely means of conveying theconsignors intention and their adoption will, therefore, undoubtedly reduce loss and damage th

7、rough incorrect handling. The useof pictorial symbols does not provide any guarantee of satisfactory handling; proper protective packaging is therefore of primaryimportance.5. Symbols5.1 Display of SymbolsSymbols may appear on a label or should preferably be printed directly on the package. It isrec

8、ommended that printed symbols be painted, stenciled (see Note 1), preprinted or otherwise reproduced, as specified herein.Affirmative symbols need not be framed by border lines, but all negative symbols, that is, “DO NOT . ,” shall have borders witha slash mark across.NOTE 1For stencilling, the symb

9、ols may be provided with bars if required (see Appendix X1).5.2 Color of SymbolsThe preferred color for symbols is black. If the color of the package is such that the symbol would notshow clearly, provide a panel of a suitable contrasting color, preferably white, as a background. Take care to avoid

10、the use of colorsthat could lead to confusion with the labeling of dangerous goods. The color red may be used when increased emphasis is requiredto focus attention of package handlers.1 This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D10 on Packaging and is the direct responsibility of Sub
