SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Classification of Substance According to GHS, 10th Revised Edition Refer to Section 15] CLASSIFIED AS HAZARDOUS NOT CLASSIFIED AS DANGEROUS GOOD The finished Caesarstone® ICON surfaces product is an inert, stable product that does not release hazardous materials in its fully intact form. However, based on the composition information for Caesarstone® ICON surfaces, dust and volatiles derived from Fabrication Processes* are classified as hazardous to human health Dust from the product contains a large amount of amorphous silica which is irritating to skin and eyes. The product may contain <1% crystalline silica, of which some or all may be respirable when dust from Fabrication of the product is created. The presence of amorphous silica in dust from the product as well as the potential presence of respirable crystalline silica in dust during Fabrication drives the hazard classification of the product ”Fabrication Process/es” or “Fabricating” or “Fabrication” means cutting, grinding, chipping, sanding, drilling, polishing, etc. manufacturing processes, including during installation or removal of the product HAZARD CLASSES AND CATEGORIES Skin Irritation: Category 2 Eye Irritation: Category 2A (NZ GHS) Carcinogenicity: Category 1A Specific Target Organ Toxicity, Single Exposure (STOT SE respiratory irritation): Category 3
