Danger

Hazard statements

Contact may cause eye irritation. Contact with skin may cause mild to moderate skin irritation. Skin application of asphalt fume condensate fractions caused skin tumors in laboratory mice. Animal studies in which high concentrations of asphaltic fumes were breathed for extended periods of time did not cause carcinogenic effects. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has concluded: there is inadequate evidence that bitumen (asphalt) alone is carcinogenic in humans. May cause damage to organs or organ systems through prolonged or repeated exposure. Potentially toxic to aquatic life.
