ANSI Z535.4-2011 (R2017): Product Safety Signs and Labels
ANSI Z535.4-2011 (R2017): Product Safety Signs and Labels provides standardized guidance for the design and application of product safety signs and labels. This reaffirmed edition helps manufacturers effectively communicate hazard information to reduce risk and improve safety across a wide range of industrial and consumer products.
Highlights:
- Defines use of standardized signal words: DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTICE
- Establishes hazard classification systems and formatting conventions
- Specifies layout, safety colors, symbols, and typography for clear communication
- Offers guidance on incorporating safety symbols for universal understanding
- Sets durability requirements for labels exposed to harsh environments
- Recommends best practices for label placement and visibility
Who It’s For:
A vital reference for engineers, product designers, compliance managers, and safety professionals responsible for labeling products in accordance with ANSI safety communication standards.

ANSI/ASHRAE 62.1-2019: Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality
ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2019: Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality establishes minimum requirements for ventilation system design, installation, and maintenance in commercial and institutional buildings. This standard is a foundational reference for achieving acceptable indoor air quality (IAQ) and reducing health risks associated with poor ventilation.
Highlights:
- Updated Ventilation Rate Procedure with enhanced zone-level calculation methods
- Revised Natural Ventilation Procedure, including outdoor air quality and mechanical integration
- Prohibits use of ozone-generating air-cleaning devices
- Requires humidity control using dew point rather than relative humidity
- Separates patient care areas now governed under ASHRAE/ASHE Standard 170
- Clarifies definitions for spaces, ventilation zones, and contaminant sources
- Outlines requirements for design documentation, commissioning, and IAQ performance testing
- Includes appendices with ventilation rate rationale, IAQ procedures, and engineering tools
Who It’s For:
A critical reference for mechanical engineers, HVAC designers, facility managers, and code officials involved in ensuring compliant ventilation design and indoor air quality performance.
