Review your application(s) in order to identify potential sources of dust exposure. Local exhaust ventilation, which collects dust at source, can be used. For example down draft tables, emission controlling tools and material handling equipment. Keep the workplace clean. Use a vacuum cleaner fitted with a HEPA filter; avoid brushing and do not use compressed air.

Wear gloves.

As necessary wear goggles or safety glass with side shields

For dust concentrations below the exposure limit value, RPE is not required but FFP2 respirators may be used on a voluntary basis. For short term operations where excursions are less than ten times the limit value use FFP2 respirators. In case of higher concentrations or where the concentration is not known, please seek advice from your company and/or your supplier.

Wear gloves and work clothes, which are loose fitting at the neck and wrists. Soiled clothes should be cleaned to remove excess fibres before being taken off (e.g. use vacuum cleaner, not compressed air).

Refer to local, national or European applicable environmental permitted standards for release to air, water and soil.
