Where P412 is current
GHS is a United Nations model text, revised every two years, and each jurisdiction adopts a revision on its own timetable. A code can be legally current in one system and deleted in another — that is normal, not an error.

03 · On a label
P412 usually appears combined
CLP Annex IV defines combined statements as single label elements. P412 is a component of one of them — this is how you will actually see it printed.
| Code | Combined statement |
|---|---|
| P410+P412 | Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C / 122 °F. CLP verbatim: Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C/122 °F. |

Substances carrying P412
