Symbols and pictures have been used as a form of communication since time began. Their message can be quickly and easily conveyed. Pictures and symbols are particularly helpful in situations where the written word, for various reasons, is not easily understood. 

Although pictographs (also known as pictograms) have been available since the early 1900s, it is only in recent years that they have gained their current status with exporters and importers. This is due largely to the advent of more stringent consumer protection laws.

When properly designed, these pressure-sensitive labels can be used to communicate critical handling information such as "Fragile" "Keep Dry" This End Up" etc. All labels have been produced in accordance with ANSI and ISO standards.
