Contain the discharged material.
Environmental Precautions
Dispose of waste material according to Local, State, Federal, and Provincial Environmental Regulations. Do not discharge
into drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Clean-Up Procedures
Attempt to reclaim the free product, if this is possible. Shovel the material into waste container. Thoroughly wash the area
with water after a spill or leak clean-up. Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Keep out of
the reach of children.
Evacuation Procedures

Special Procedures
Wear a dust mask if dust is generated above exposure limits.
7) Handling and Storage
Handling Procedures
Avoid dust formation. The Cement contained in this product reacts alkaline when in contact with water or humidity. This
may cause severe irritation of skin or mucous membranes. The humidity of the skin or mucous membranes is enough for
this reaction. Prolonged direct contact to the dry product should be avoided therefore. Avoid inhalation of dusts. Avoid
skin contact. Pour downwind and allow as little free fall as possible when emptying bags into equipment. Breathing must
be protected when large quantities are decanted without local exhaust ventilation.
Protection against fire and explosion:
No special precautions necessary.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Segregate from metals. Segregate from acids. Segregate from lyes, Segregate from oxidants. Segregate from foods
and animal feeds.

Engineering Controls
Provide adequate local exhaust ventilation to maintain worker exposure below exposure limits. Local exhaust is
suggested for use, where possible, in enclosed or confined spaces.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Personal Protective Equipment: Eyes/Face
Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles.
Personal Protective Equipment: Skin
The use of nitrile-latex gloves is recommended
Personal Protective Equipment: Respiratory
If airborne concentrations are above the applicable exposure limits, use NIOSH approved respiratory protection.
Personal Protective Equipment: General
Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Use good industrial hygiene practices in handling this material.
General safety and hygiene measures:
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid inhalation of dusts. In order to prevent contamination while
handling, closed working clothes and working gloves should be used. Handle in accordance with good building materials
hygiene and safety practice. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Hands and/or face should be washed before
breaks and at the end of the shift. At the end of the shift the skin should be cleaned and skin-care agents applied. Gloves
must be inspected regularly and prior to each use. Replace if necessary (e.g. pinhole leaks). Contaminated equipment or
clothing should be cleaned after each use or disposed of.
