Key topics and requirements

• Registration and publication of new or revised graphical safety symbols (registered sign originals).
• Conformance with ISO 3864‑1 (safety colours and safety sign principles) and ISO 3864‑3 (design of graphical symbols).
• Specification of sign originals suitable for scaling, reproduction and application on signs, labels and equipment.
• Clarifications or editorial corrections to the ISO 7010 sign registry where required.
• Intended application areas: accident prevention, fire protection, health-hazard information and emergency evacuation (excluding regulated transport signalling systems).

Typical use and users

Used by safety managers, EHS (environment, health & safety) professionals, signage and labelling manufacturers, industrial designers, facilities managers, regulatory bodies and standards adopters who need the authoritative registered sign artwork and formal updates for compliance, procurement and production of safety signage. Organizations adopt amendments like Amd 9 to ensure new signs or revisions are implemented consistently.

Related standards

ISO 7010:2019 (base standard) is the primary related document; ISO 3864 (parts 1 and 3) provides the colour and symbol-design principles referenced by ISO 7010. The ISO project documents show that a new edition (ISO/CD 7010) is under development to supersede or consolidate the series in future revisions.
