Manufacturer's Label

Formaldehyde containers have a manufacturer's label indicating the hazards associated with its use. These labels include the name and address of the manufacturer or distributor and appropriate hazard warnings. Formalin containers must always be appropriately labeled.
In the image on the right, the formaldehyde bottle shows the manufacturer Sigma-Aldrich and the hazard warnings for its deathly, carcinogenic, and corrosive properties.
