Labelling and advertising for personal protective equipment

Information on how to make sure your personal protective equipment (PPE) meets labelling, packaging, and advertising standards.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) medical devices must follow strict rules for labelling and advertising in Australia.   
  

Labels must clearly show the device’s purpose, instructions, warnings, and patient info if needed.   
  

Advertising must be truthful, evidence-based, and not misleading. You’re responsible for compliance across all platforms.   
  

We monitor this and can take enforcement action if rules are broken. Following these rules is essential for legal supply and safe use of PPE.
