SECTION 2: Hazards identification
GHS Classification Tile products are mixtures of predominantly clays, silica sand, and other natural occurring minerals that have been mixed with water and fired in a high temperature kiln. The finished, fired tiles are odorless, stable, non-flammable, and pose no immediate hazard to health. Respiratory, hand and eye protection may be needed to prevent excess exposure to airborne particulates if dust is produced by cutting tiles during installation or if dust is produced by any other operations, including demolition/removal projects. Emergency Overview: Danger! Lung injury and Cancer Hazard GHS Classification (Global Harmonized Standard Classification) Carcinogenicity Category 1A (H350) Specific target organ toxicity, single exposure; Respiratory tract irritation - Category 3 (H335) Specific target organ toxicity, repeated exposure - Category 1A (H372) GHS Label, Hazards and Precautionary Statements
