P501 Dispose of contents/container to appropriate waste collection point. Supplemental Skin contact with wet cement, fresh concrete or mortar may cause irritation, dermatitis or informationen burns. May cause damage to products made of aluminium or other non-noble metals. This product contains respirable quartz as an impurity and therefore is classified as STOT RE 2 according to criteria defined in the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008. Depending on the type of handling and use (e.g. grinding, drying), airborne respirable crystalline silica may be generated. Prolonged and/or massive inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust may cause lung fibrosis, commonly referred to as silicosis. Principal symptoms of silicosis are cough and breathlessness. Occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust should be monitored and controlled. This product should be handled with care to avoid dust generation.

2.3 Other hazards

Cement does not meet the criteria for PBT or vPvB in accordance with Annex XIII of REACH (Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006). The product contains chromate reducing agent. As a result, the content of soluble chromium (VI) is less than 2 ppm. If the storage conditions are not appropriate or the storage period is exceeded, the effectiveness of the reducing agent can diminish, and the cement can become skin sensitizing (H317 or EUH203).
