Overview
EN ISO 7010:2020/A8:2024 is Amendment 8 to the registered safety signs standard EN ISO 7010:2020 (ISO 7010:2019). Published by CEN in December 2024 and adopted into national standards by mid‑2025, this amendment adds two pictograms for infection‑control signage: M061 - Disinfect your hands and M062 - Disinfect surface. The amendment clarifies image content, intended function, and guidance on comprehension and supplementary text.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Registered safety signs added
- M061: illustrates two hands under a dispenser with droplets - function: signify that hands must be disinfected.
- M062: shows a wipe and hand with stylized microbes - function: signify that a surface must be disinfected.
- Image content and referents: Each sign includes a clear image description and a short referent (e.g., “Disinfect your hands”).
- Comprehension and supplementary text: Test data according to ISO 9186-1 are not available for these new signs; the amendment requires using a supplementary textual sign to increase comprehension unless the sign is supported by manuals, training or instructions.
- Colour and reproduction guidance: Electronic colour representations are not guaranteed accurate; for colour matching and photometric properties refer to ISO 3864‑4.
- Registered sign availability: All signs are available on the ISO Online Browsing Platform (OBP).
Practical applications
- Healthcare facilities: Clear, standardized signage for hand hygiene stations and surface disinfection points to reduce infection risk.
- Public spaces and transport hubs: Consistent visual cues for travelers and visitors to disinfect hands or surfaces.
- Workplaces and industrial sites: Infection control during outbreaks, cleaning procedures and routine hygiene programs.
- Facilities management & cleaning contractors: Guidance for placing and labeling disinfection stations and protocols.
- Signage designers and manufacturers: Use registered pictograms and follow colour specifications and supplementary text recommendations for legal and safety compliance.
Who should use this standard
- Health and safety managers, infection prevention teams, facilities managers, workplace compliance officers, sign designers, and regulatory bodies across EU and ISO member countries seeking consistent, internationally recognized disinfectant‑related safety signs.
