What is a Master Label, and what information does it include?

A Master Label is the EPA-approved document that defines the approved uses, claims, and safety requirements for a disinfectant product. It provides the complete framework for how the product can be marketed and used in healthcare and other environments.

A Master Label includes key information such as: company name and address; the EPA Registration and Establishment Numbers; approved efficacy claims; toxicity classification; directions for use; required contact times; storage and disposal instructions; first aid and precautionary statements; and any marketing claims reviewed by the EPA.

To review a product’s Master Label, visit the EPA Master Label Lookup Tool [https://ordspub.epa.gov/ords/pesticides/f?p=PPLS:1] and search by EPA Registration Number.
