Recommended use of the chemical and restrictions on use

Recommended use: Skin-care

Restrictions on use:
This is a personal care formulation which is comparable in personal safety to conventional hair

shampoos and body soaps which are used for personal bathing in home bathtubs or showers
and the same precautions used in those situations would apply for this product. Consumer
products in the US, Canada and in Europe (as well as other countries) are exempt from
requiring an SDS for consumers. Although the normal use of this product as a hand cleaner at
the hand washing sink is not considered hazardous; regulations require an SDS for the product
in an industrial environment. This SDS does contain useful information should unusual and
unintended exposures occur such as a large spill that might happen if handling the material in
bulk or in ways that are not described, and hence hazardous information follows for such an
unusual occurrence. Therefore, this SDS should be kept and made available for any employees
or any other users of the product. For usage instructions as intended please read the
information on the package or on the product instruction sheet.
