Directive 67/548/EEC: With regard to its composition, the products are not classified as hazardous according to European Directive 67/548/EEC and its latest amendments. Details about chemical hazards are given in paragraph 3. Toxicological aspects are developed in detail in chapter 11. Glass filaments are over 3μm in diameter. So, they do not reach the lower respiratory tract and, therefore have no possibility of causing serious pulmonary disease Hazards identified are: • mechanical irritation (itching), • formation of respirable filaments (in case of high mechanical overload i.e. milling, grinding …) • extremely rare possibilities of allergy.
