Personal protective equipment
General protective and hygienic measures
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed.
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Do not inhale gases / fumes / aerosols.
Do not eat or drink while working.
Use skin protection cream for skin protection.
The usual protective measures based on the application have to be followed.
All protective equipment used shall be according to 29 CFR.1910 Subpart I Personal Protective
Equipment
Breathing equipment:
Not necessary if room is well-ventilated.
Short term filter device:
Filter A
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements
or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's
use.
Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when necessary.
Protection of hands:
Wear chemically resistant protective gloves (tested according to DIN EN 374)
The glove material has to be impermeable and resistant to the product/ the substance/ the
preparation.
