Engineering Controls: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and

at the end of workday.

Eye/Face Protection: Face shield and safety glasses Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under

appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).

Skin Protection: Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique

(without touching glove’s outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of

contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices.

Wash and dry hands.

The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and

the standard EN 374 derived from it.

If used in solution, or mixed with other substances, and under conditions which differ from EN 374,

contact the supplier of the CE approved gloves. This recommendation is advisory only and must

be evaluated by an industrial hygienist and safety officer familiar with the specific situation of

anticipated use by our customers. It should not be construed as offering an approval for any

specific use scenario.

Body Protection: Complete suit protecting against chemicals, The type of protective equipment must be selected

according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.

Respiratory Protection: Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face particle respirator type N100 (US) or type P3 (EN 143) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering

controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use

respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such

as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
