General protective measures

Do not inhale dust

Avoid contact with eyes and skin

Observe the usual precautions for handling chemicals.

Hygiene measures

Keep away from foodstuffs and beverages.

Wash hands before breaks and after work.

Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately and clean thoroughly before reuse
