Other hazards which do not result in classification

This SDS only considers the Earth Friendly Concrete when it is in its wet state. The final hardened concrete is relatively inert, however, should the hardened concrete be cut or ground it may result in dust. The dust from dry concrete may cause; • Acute Respiratory Irritation, • Chronic over exposure by inhalation of crystalline silica dust may result in silicosis (lung disease). Principal symptoms of silicosis are coughing and breathlessness.
