PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT GUIDELINES:
The recommendation for protective equipment contained within this Chem Alert report is provided as a guide only.
Factors such as method of application, working environment, quantity used, product concentration and the availability
of engineering controls should be considered before final selection of personal protective equipment is made.
Information provided by Risk Management Technologies is summarised for ease of use. Additional technical
information is available by calling +61 8 9322 1711.
HEALTH EFFECTS FROM EXPOSURE:
It should be noted that the effects from exposure to this product will depend on several factors including: frequency
and duration of use; quantity used; effectiveness of control measures; protective equipment used and method of
application. Given that it is impractical to prepare a Chem Alert report which would encompass all possible scenarios,
it is anticipated that users will assess the risks and apply control methods where appropriate.
COLOUR RATING SYSTEM: Chem Alert reports are assigned a colour rating of Green, Amber or Red for the
purpose of providing users with a quick and easy means of determining the hazardous nature of a product. Safe
handling recommendations are provided in all Chem Alert reports so as to clearly identify how users can control the
hazards and thereby reduce the risk (or likelihood) of adverse effects. As a general guideline a Green colour rating
indicates a low hazard, an Amber colour rating indicates a moderate hazard and a Red colour rating indicates a high
hazard.

Report Status Chem Alert reports are compiled as an independent source of information by RMT's scientific department, based on
the latest chemical and toxicological research and, where appropriate, in compliance with relevant standards,
guidance notes and legislation. Where available the manufacturer's original MSDS is also provided to Chem Alert
subscribers as a scanned image for their convenience. In many instances Chem Alert reports are compiled on behalf
of manufacturers in which case they serve as the "Manufacturer's MSDS" and are clearly identifed as such on the
relevant reports.
