What H315 means
H315 is the GHS (Globally Harmonized System) hazard statement “Causes skin irritation.” It belongs to the Skin corrosion/irritation hazard class and appears in Section 2 of a Safety Data Sheet and on the product label when a substance or mixture meets the classification criteria for that class and category.
Where H315 applies, GHS assigns the signal word Warning and the GHS07 (Exclamation mark) pictogram. The exact signal word and pictogram set on a finished label come from the whole classification — the most severe endpoint drives the signal word, so a milder statement can be present without changing an already-Danger label.
