31、:1997), which has been technically revised.All the 17 graphical symbols in this International Standard have already been modified to accord with IEC 80416-1:2008, Basic principles for graphical symbols for use on equipment Part 1: Creation of graphical symbols for registration and submitted to TC 14
32、5/SC 3 for registration on ISO 7000, Graphical symbols for use on equipment Registered symbols.Some of the major modification points are indicated as follows:a) Title:New: Packaging Distribution packaging Graphical symbols for handling and storage of packagesOld: Packaging Pictorial marking for hand
33、ling of goods“Distribution packaging” is preferred to “transport packaging” in this standard. The reason is that “transport packaging” does not include “stored” packages, for example, in the practice of “transport packaging for dangerous goods”. ISO 780 concerns with packages during storage as well
34、as those during transport.“Pictorial marking” is replaced by “graphical symbols” to coincide with TC 145s way of addressing pictorial marking.b) Introduction:Statements on safety issue and hand-written symbols have been added.c) Handling instructions:The order of the graphical symbols has been re-ar
35、ranged in the following order.1) Graphical symbols used for large-sized packages.DIN EN ISO 780:2016-05 EN ISO 780:2015 (E) 4 2) Graphical symbols used for middle and small-sized packages: For all types of handling; For manual handling; For handling using machines.3) Graphical symbols used for both
36、transport and storage.4) Graphical symbols used for storage.To make this standard easier to use, the layout of the table has been changed and each graphical symbol has its Reference No. to ISO 7000, Meaning, Requirement, Note and example of application.DIN EN ISO 780:2016-05 EN ISO 780:2015 (E) 5 In
37、troductionPackages are often marked with handling instructions in the language of the country of origin. While this may safeguard the consignment in the areas using the same language, it is of little value for goods consigned to, or through, countries using different languages, and of no value at al
38、l if people handling the packages are illiterate.Graphical symbols offer the best possibility of conveying the consignors intention and their adoption will; therefore, undoubtedly reduce loss and damage through incorrect handling. Moreover, graphical symbols help ensure safety of workers, who cannot
39、 grasp such important information as structure, gravity centre, property, and strength of a package while handling distribution packages.The graphical symbols specified are in accordance with the rules of ISO/TC 145/SC 3, Graphical symbols for use on equipment.The use of graphical symbols does not p
40、rovide any guarantee of satisfactory handling; safely and properly protective packaging is therefore of primary importance.Distribution packages could deteriorate as time passes and sometimes cannot withstand normal handling before they reach the final destination. In such case, according to the pro
41、visions of the distribution contract, we need to decide whether to stop shipping and storing them or to continue to use them by putting proper graphical symbols on them. In any case, handwritten symbols are partially accepted in this standard so that the proper symbols can be added to do the needful
42、 on the spot.DIN EN ISO 780:2016-05 EN ISO 780:2015 (E) 6 1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a set of graphical symbols conventionally used for marking of distribution packages in their physical distribution chain to convey handling instructions. The graphical symbols should be used only w
43、hen necessary.This International Standard is applicable to packages containing any kind of goods, but does not include instructions specific to handling of dangerous goods.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispen

46、al symbols shall be considered.3.2 Display of graphical symbolsFor large packages, graphical symbols should preferably be stencilled directly on the package or may appear on a label. It is recommended that the graphical symbols should be printed, painted or otherwise reproduced as specified in this
47、International Standard. They need not be framed by border lines.The graphical design of each symbol shall have only one meaning; symbols are purposely designed so that they can also be stencilled without changing the graphics. The change of the graphics, however, is accepted to facilitate the formin
48、g of stencil.3.3 Colour of graphical symbolsThe colour used for graphical symbols shall be black.If the colour of the package is such that the black symbol would not show clearly, a panel of a suitable contrasting colour, preferably white, shall be provided as a background.Care shall be taken to avoid the use of colours such as red, orange or yellow, which could result in confusion with the labelling of dangerous goods.DIN EN ISO 7
