This article is focusing on the European device of regulatory display of the danger of the safe household products for mass consumption. The present display of safety on the packaging of products is the device of information selected by the legislator to inform the consumers about the precautions to be taken to avoid the risks. How are the industrialists going to comply with the regulatory device of classification, packaging and labeling of hazardous chemical substances, without alarming the consumers? The article investigates this question from an analysis of the regulations and the directives which organize the information of safety of the consumers. The work of stake in conformity of the industrialists is analyzed from the packaging of the household products available on the market.
