CLP CLASSIFICATION
Under the CLP-Regulation (classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures) RCF/ASW has been classified as a 1B carcinogen (“presumed to have carcinogenic potential for humans, classification is largely based on animal evidence”).
Additional information
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reaffirmed in 2001 that group 2B (“possibly carcinogenic to humans”) remains the appropriate classification for RCF/ASW. In accordance with 1st adaptation to Technical Progress of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 as published 10th August 2009, the classification as "irritant" has been removed for all types of manmade vitreous fibres (MMVFs).

Other hazards which do not result in classification
Mild mechanical irritation to skin, eyes and upper respiratory system may result from exposure. These effects are usually temporary. 2 of 16 Chronic effects for crystalline silica. These products may contain minimal amounts of crystalline silica. Prolonged/repeated inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust may cause delayed lung injury (silicosis). IARC (International Agency for research on Cancer) states that there is "sufficient evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of inhaled crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources to classify crystalline silica as carcinogenic to humans (Group 1)". (Monograph V 68) In making the overall evaluation the Working Group noted however that carcinogenicity in humans was not detected in all industrial circumstances studied.
