Facility/Engineering Measures: Cut the product outdoors or in a well-ventilated place using a saw with fiber
cement saw blades and dust-collecting function. When handling the product
indoors, provide a ventilation system, etc., to keep the concentration of airborne
dust to the controlled level or below.
Personal Protective Equipment:
Eyes: Anti-dust goggles compliant with ANSI Z87.1.
Hands: Protective work gloves, regularly washed.
Respiratory: Use a properly-fitted N, O, or P 100 respirator when cutting or otherwise abrading product.
Skin: Select personal protective equipment for the body based on the task being performed.
Pants, long-sleeve shirts recommended to prevent skin from dust exposure.

[11. INFORMATION ON TOXICOLOGY/HARMFULNESS]
Acute toxicity: No data is available.
Skin corrosivity/irritation and serious damage/irritation to eye:
・If product comes into contact with water, it may exhibit strong alkalinity (pH12 to 13) and cause irritation to
the eye, nose and skin as well as inflammation to the cornea, tissues inside the nose, and skin.
Respiratory organ sensitization or skin sensitization:
・The cement contains a trace amount of chromium compound and may cause allergic reaction in people
