How to Read an EPA Label

One of the prime focuses in our Education & Training efforts is on understanding the EPA label.  It is your guide to using regulated products safely and effectively & provides unified terminology for comparisions between products. It contains pertinent information that you should read and understand before you use a disinfectant product, yet has become increasingly more complicated & difficult to understand.

Click on the link below to try out the EPA Interactive Label which helps you understand the different parts of a product label. 

Remember, if the product has an EPA number then you can be assured that every word on the label has been reviewed & approved. Any missing sections (as on the Benefect label) can be considered not required for safe & effective use.

What a product label does NOT say can be as important as what it does say.
