2.3 Other hazards
This product contains more than 1% Crystalline Silica (Quartz) and is considered a Crystalline Silica Substance as specified in Victoria's Occupational Health and Safety Amendment (Crystalline Silica) Regulations 2021, S.R. No. 137/2021. Some sensitized individuals may exhibit an allergic skin response upon exposure to Recycled Concrete Aggregates (RCA) due to the presence of trace levels of Hexavalent Chromium. Although rare, may contain trace amounts (<0.01%) of Respirable Elongated Mineral Particulates. The levels detected are determined to be well below the threshold level.
