Hello Joe, I would verify with your EH&S people at the locations you are shipping these products to. They are the ones who are going to have to deal with workplace safety issues and convince local authorities that the lab equipment meets applicable laws. I ran into a similar situation with laser diode robotic assemblers years ago and just needed to make sure that the products met the basic safety requirements of the LVD and Machinery Directive.
