3.2. MixturesCommon cements in accordance with NP EN 197-1:2012.

SECTION 4First aid

4.1 Description of first aid measures

4.1.1 GeneralNo personal protective equipment is needed for first aid responders, but they should avoid contact with wet cement or mixtures containing wet cement.4.1.2 Following contact with eyesDo not rub eyes in order to avoid possible cornea damage due to friction. Remove lenses, if worn. Incline head to the side of the injured eye, open the eyelid(s) wide and rinse eye(s) immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 20 minutes to remove all particles. If possible, use isotonic water (0.9% NaCl). Contact a specialist in occupational medicine or an eye specialist, preferably an

ophthalmologist.4.1.3 Following contact with skinDry cement: Remove the cement and rinse abundantly with water.Wet cement: Wash skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing, footwear, watch, etc. and clean thoroughly before re-use.

Seek medical treatment in all cases of skin irritation or burns.4.1.4 Following accidental inhalationMove the person to fresh air. Dust in throat and nasal passages should clear spontaneously. Contact a doctor if irritation, cough or other symptoms persist or develop later.4.1.5 Following accidental ingestionDo not induce vomiting. If the person is conscious, wash out mouth with water and give plenty of water to drink. Seek immediate medical attention or contact the Anti-toxins Centre (see 1.4 Emergency Number).

4.2. Most important symptoms and e�ects, acute and delayedEyes: Eye contact with cement (dry or wet) may cause serious and potentially irreversible injuries.Skin: Cement may have an irritating e�ect on moist skin (due to sweat or humidity) or may cause contact dermatitis after prolonged contact. Prolonged skin contact with cement powder or wet concrete may cause serious irritation, dermatitis or serious burns, because they develop without pain being felt.Inhalation: Repeated inhalation of large quantities of cement dust over a long period of time increases the risk of developing lung diseases.Environment: Under normal conditions, there is no expected environmental hazard from common cements.

4.3. Immediate medical attention and special treatment neededWhen contacting a doctor/physician, following the above exposures take this Safety Data sheet with you.

H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction

H335: May cause respiratory irritation

6.3. Containment and cleaning methods and materials Clean up the spillage or release in a dry state if possible.Dry cement - Use dry cleaning methods that do not cause airborne dispersion, for example:

- Vacuum system - Industrial portable units, equipped with high e�ciency air filters (HEPA filters) or equivalent technique); - Removal of particles by wiping - mopping or water sprays or hoses (to avoid dust dispersion) with removal of slurry.If not possible, remove slurry with water (see wet cement paste). When wet or vacuum cleaning is not possible and only dry cleaning with brushes is available, ensure that workers wear the appropriate personal protective equipment and dust dispersion.Avoid inhalation of cement and contact with skin. Place spilled materials in a container. Wet pastes must be solidified before disposal as described under Section 13.

Wet Cement – Clean up wet cement and place in a container. Allow material to dry and solidify before disposal as described under Section 13.

6.4. Reference to other sectionsSee sections 8 and 13 for further details.

SECTION 7Handling and Storage

7.1 Safe handling precautions

7.1.1 Protective measuresFollow the recommendations provided in Section 8. To clean up dry cement, see Subsection 6.3.Fire-fighting measures: Not Applicable.

Dust dispersion prevention measures: Do not sweep.Use dry clean-up methods such as vacuuming or vacuum extraction, which do not cause airborne dispersion.The "Good Practice Guides" contain advice on safe handling practices:

http://www.nepsi.eu/agreement-good-practice-guide/good-practice-guide.aspx

These good practices have been adopted as part of the European Social Dialogue Agreement on the protection of workers' health through the correct use and handling of crystalline silica and products containing crystalline silica by Employers' and Workers' Organizations through European industry associations, including CEMBUREAU.Measures to protect the environment No particular measures to be taken

7.1.2 Information on general occupational hygieneDo not handle or store near food and beverages or tobacco.In dusty environments, wear dust mask and protective goggles. Use protective gloves to avoid contact with the skin.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilitiesCement should be stored in open areas that are waterproof, dry (i.e. with internal condensation minimised), clean and protected from contamination. Engulfment hazard: To prevent burial or su�ocation, do not enter a confined space, such as a silo, hopper, tank or other storage container or vessel that stores or contains cement without taking the proper safety measures. Cement can build up or adhere to the walls of a confined space. Cement can be released, collapse or fall unexpectedly.Do not use aluminium tanks to transport or store hydraulic binders due to the incompatibility between these materials.

7.3 Specific end usesNo additional information for the specific end uses (see section 1.2).

7.4. Control of soluble Cr (VI)For cements treated with a Cr (VI) reducing agent according to the regulations provided in Section 15, the e�ectiveness of the reducing agent diminishes with time. Therefore, cement bags and/or delivery documents will contain information on the packaging date, the storage conditions and the appropriate storage period to ensure that the reducing agent keeps the content of soluble chromium (VI) below 0.0002 % of the total dry weight of the cement ready for use, in accordance with EN 196-10. They must also indicate the appropriate storage conditions for maintaining the e�ectiveness of the reducing agent.

SECTION 8Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

8.1 Control Parameters:For indicative purposes only, please refer to standard NP 1796:2014 - the weighted average concentration for a working day of 8 hours and a week of 40 hours, which is applicable to practically all workers, day after day, without adverse health e�ects (VLE-MP), is:

8.2 Control of exposureFor each PROC, users can choose option A) or B) in the table below, whichever is best suited to their specific situation. The option that is chosen must also be chosen in the table in section "8.2.2 Personal protective measures, including personal protective equipment" - Specification of respiratory protective equipment. Only combinations A) - A) and B) - B) are possible.

8.2.1 Appropriate engineering controlsMeasures to reduce generation of dust and to avoid dust being dispersed in the environment such as de-dusting, exhaust ventilation and dry clean-up methods which do not cause airborne

dispersion.

8.2.2 Individual protection measures such as personal protection equipment

General: During work avoid kneeling in fresh mortar or concrete wherever possible. If kneeling is absolutely necessary then appropriate waterproof personal protective equipment must be worn. Do not eat, drink or smoke when working with cement to avoid contact with skin or mouth. Before starting to work with cement, apply a barrier cream and reapply it at regular intervals.Immediately after working with cement or cement-containing materials, workers should wash or shower or use skin moisturisers. Remove contaminated clothing, footwear, watch, etc. and clean thoroughly before re-use.

Eye/face protection Wear approved glasses or safety goggles according to EN 166 [Reference (17)] when handling dry or wet cement to prevent contact with eyes.Skin protection Use watertight, wear-and alkali-resistant protective gloves (e.g. nitrile soaked cotton gloves with CE marking) internally lined with cotton; boots; closed long-sleeved protective clothing as well as skin care products (e.g. barrier creams) to protect the skin from prolonged contact with wet cement. Particular care should be taken to ensure that wet cement does not enter the boots. In some circumstances, such as when laying concrete or screed, waterproof trousers or kneepads are necessary.Respiratory protection: When a person is potentially exposed to dust levels above exposure limits, use appropriate respiratory protection. The type of respiratory protection should be adapted to the dust level and conform to the relevant EN standard, (e.g. EN 149 or national standards).Thermal hazards: Not applicable

A summary of the APFs of the di�erent RPEs (in accordance with EN 529:2005) is provided in the MEASE glossary (16).Any RPE, as defined above, must be used if the following principles are implemented simultaneously: The duration of the work (compare with “duration of exposure” above) should reflect the additional physiological stress for the worker due to the breathing resistance and mass of the RPE itself, due to the increased thermal stress by enclosing the head. In addition, it must be considered that the worker’s ability to use tools and communicate are reduced when RPE is worn.Hence, for the reasons given above, the worker must be (i) healthy (especially in view of medical problems that may a�ect the use of RPE), (ii) have suitable facial characteristics reducing leakages between face and mask. The recommended devices above which rely on a tight face seal will not provide the required protection unless they fit the contours of the face properly and securely.The employer and self-employed persons have legal responsibilities for the maintenance and issue of respiratory protective devices and the management of their correct use in the workplace. Therefore, they must define and document a suitable policy for respiratory protective devices, including training for workers.

8.2 Control of environmental exposureAir: Environmental exposure control for the emission of cement particles into the air must be in accordance with the available technology and regulations for the emission of general dust particles.Water: Do not wash cement into sewage systems or into water courses, to avoid high pH. Above pH 9 negative ecotoxicological impacts are possible.Soil: No special emission control measures are necessary.

The recommended devices above which rely on a tight face seal will not provide the required protection unless they fit the contours of the face properly and securely.The employer and self-employed persons have legal responsibilities for the maintenance and issue of respiratory protective devices and the management of their correct use in the workplace. Therefore, they must define and document a suitable policy for respiratory protective devices, including training for workers.

8.2 Control of environmental exposureAir: Environmental exposure control for the emission of cement particles into the air must be in accordance with the available technology and regulations for the emission of general dust particles.Water: Do not wash cement into sewage systems or into water courses, to avoid high pH. Above pH 9 negative ecotoxicological impacts are possible.Soil: No special emission control measures are necessary.

SECTION 4First aid

4.1 Description of first aid measures

4.1.1 GeneralNo personal protective equipment is needed for first aid responders, but they should avoid contact with wet cement or mixtures containing wet cement.4.1.2 Following contact with eyesDo not rub eyes in order to avoid possible cornea damage due to friction. Remove lenses, if worn. Incline head to the side of the injured eye, open the eyelid(s) wide and rinse eye(s) immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 20 minutes to remove all particles. If possible, use isotonic water (0.9% NaCl). Contact a specialist in occupational medicine or an eye specialist, preferably an

ophthalmologist.4.1.3 Following contact with skinDry cement: Remove the cement and rinse abundantly with water.Wet cement: Wash skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing, footwear, watch, etc. and clean thoroughly before re-use.

Seek medical treatment in all cases of skin irritation or burns.4.1.4 Following accidental inhalationMove the person to fresh air. Dust in throat and nasal passages should clear spontaneously. Contact a doctor if irritation, cough or other symptoms persist or develop later.4.1.5 Following accidental ingestionDo not induce vomiting. If the person is conscious, wash out mouth with water and give plenty of water to drink. Seek immediate medical attention or contact the Anti-toxins Centre (see 1.4 Emergency Number).

4.2. Most important symptoms and e�ects, acute and delayedEyes: Eye contact with cement (dry or wet) may cause serious and potentially irreversible injuries.Skin: Cement may have an irritating e�ect on moist skin (due to sweat or humidity) or may cause contact dermatitis after prolonged contact. Prolonged skin contact with cement powder or wet concrete may cause serious irritation, dermatitis or serious burns, because they develop without pain being felt.Inhalation: Repeated inhalation of large quantities of cement dust over a long period of time increases the risk of developing lung diseases.Environment: Under normal conditions, there is no expected environmental hazard from common cements.

4.3. Immediate medical attention and special treatment neededWhen contacting a doctor/physician, following the above exposures take this Safety Data sheet with you.

6.2. Environmental precautionsDo not wash cement down sewage and drainage systems or into water courses (e.g. streams).

6.3. Containment and cleaning methods and materials Clean up the spillage or release in a dry state if possible.Dry cement - Use dry cleaning methods that do not cause airborne dispersion, for example:

- Vacuum system - Industrial portable units, equipped with highe�ciency air filters (HEPA filters) or equivalent technique); - Removal of particles by wiping - mopping or water sprays orhoses (to avoid dust dispersion) with removal of slurry.If not possible, remove slurry with water (see wet cement paste).When wet or vacuum cleaning is not possible and only dry cleaningwith brushes is available, ensure that workers wear the appropriatepersonal protective equipment and dust dispersion.Avoid inhalation of cement and contact with skin. Place spilledmaterials in a container. Wet pastes must be solidified beforedisposal as described under Section 13.

Wet Cement – Clean up wet cement and place in a container. Allow material to dry and solidify before disposal as described under Section 13.

6.4. Reference to other sectionsSee sections 8 and 13 for further details.

SECTION 7Handling and Storage

7.1 Safe handling precautions

7.1.1 Protective measuresFollow the recommendations provided in Section 8. To clean up dry cement, see Subsection 6.3.

Fire-fighting measures: Not Applicable.Dust dispersion prevention measures: Do not sweep.Use dry clean-up methods such as vacuuming or vacuum extraction, which do not cause airborne dispersion.The "Good Practice Guides" contain advice on safe handling practices:

http://www.nepsi.eu/agreement-good-practice-guide/good-practice-guide.aspx

These good practices have been adopted as part of the European Social Dialogue Agreement on the protection of workers' health through the correct use and handling of crystalline silica and products containing crystalline silica by Employers' and Workers' Organizations through European industry associations, including CEMBUREAU.Measures to protect the environment No particular measures to be taken

7.1.2 Information on general occupational hygieneDo not handle or store near food and beverages or tobacco.In dusty environments, wear dust mask and protective goggles. Use protective gloves to avoid contact with the skin.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilitiesCement should be stored in open areas that are waterproof, dry (i.e. with internal condensation minimised), clean and protected from contamination. Engulfment hazard: To prevent burial or su�ocation, do not enter a confined space, such as a silo, hopper, tank or other storage container or vessel that stores or contains cement without taking the proper safety measures. Cement can build up or adhere to the walls of a confined space. Cement can be released, collapse or fall unexpectedly.Do not use aluminium tanks to transport or store hydraulic binders due to the incompatibility between these materials.

7.3 Specific end usesNo additional information for the specific end uses (see section 1.2).

7.4. Control of soluble Cr (VI)For cements treated with a Cr (VI) reducing agent according to the regulations provided in Section 15, the e�ectiveness of the reducing agent diminishes with time. Therefore, cement bags and/or delivery documents will contain information on the packaging date, the storage conditions and the appropriate storage period to ensure that the reducing agent keeps the content of soluble chromium (VI) below 0.0002 % of the total dry weight of the cement ready for use, in accordance with EN 196-10.

A summary of the APFs of the di�erent RPEs (in accordance with EN 529:2005) is provided in the MEASE glossary (16).Any RPE, as defined above, must be used if the following principles are implemented simultaneously: The duration of the work (compare with “duration of exposure” above) should reflect the additional physiological stress for the worker due to the breathing resistance and mass of the RPE itself, due to the increased thermal stress by enclosing the head. In addition, it must be considered that the worker’s ability to use tools and communicate are reduced when RPE is worn.Hence, for the reasons given above, the worker must be (i) healthy (especially in view of medical problems that may a�ect the use of RPE), (ii) have suitable facial characteristics reducing leakages between face and mask. The recommended devices above which rely on a tight face seal will not provide the required protection unless they fit the contours of the face properly and securely.The employer and self-employed persons have legal responsibilities for the maintenance and issue of respiratory protective devices and the management of their correct use in the workplace. Therefore, they must define and document a suitable policy for respiratory protective devices, including training for workers.

8.2 Control of environmental exposureAir: Environmental exposure control for the emission of cement particles into the air must be in accordance with the available technology and regulations for the emission of general dust particles.Water: Do not wash cement into sewage systems or into water courses, to avoid high pH. Above pH 9 negative ecotoxicological impacts are possible.Soil: No special emission control measures are necessary.

3.2. MixturesCommon cements in accordance with NP EN 197-1:2012.

SECTION 4First aid

4.1 Description of first aid measures

4.1.1 GeneralNo personal protective equipment is needed for first aid responders, but they should avoid contact with wet cement or mixtures containing wet cement.4.1.2 Following contact with eyesDo not rub eyes in order to avoid possible cornea damage due to friction. Remove lenses, if worn. Incline head to the side of the injured eye, open the eyelid(s) wide and rinse eye(s) immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 20 minutes to remove all particles. If possible, use isotonic water (0.9% NaCl). Contact a specialist in occupational medicine or an eye specialist, preferably an

ophthalmologist.4.1.3 Following contact with skinDry cement: Remove the cement and rinse abundantly with water.Wet cement: Wash skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing, footwear, watch, etc. and clean thoroughly before re-use.

Seek medical treatment in all cases of skin irritation or burns.4.1.4 Following accidental inhalationMove the person to fresh air. Dust in throat and nasal passages should clear spontaneously. Contact a doctor if irritation, cough or other symptoms persist or develop later.4.1.5 Following accidental ingestionDo not induce vomiting. If the person is conscious, wash out mouth with water and give plenty of water to drink. Seek immediate medical attention or contact the Anti-toxins Centre (see 1.4 Emergency Number).

4.2. Most important symptoms and e�ects, acute and delayedEyes: Eye contact with cement (dry or wet) may cause serious and potentially irreversible injuries.Skin: Cement may have an irritating e�ect on moist skin (due to sweat or humidity) or may cause contact dermatitis after prolonged contact. Prolonged skin contact with cement powder or wet concrete may cause serious irritation, dermatitis or serious burns, because they develop without pain being felt.Inhalation: Repeated inhalation of large quantities of cement dust over a long period of time increases the risk of developing lung diseases.Environment: Under normal conditions, there is no expected environmental hazard from common cements.

4.3. Immediate medical attention and special treatment neededWhen contacting a doctor/physician, following the above exposures take this Safety Data sheet with you.

SECTION 5Fire-fighting measures

5.2 Special hazards arising from the mixtureCement is neither flammable nor explosive and will not cause or contribute to the combustion of other materials.

5.3 Advice for fire-fightersCement poses no fire-related hazards. No specific protective equipment is required for fire-fighters.

SECTION 6Measures to be Taken in the Event of Accidental Releases

6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

6.1.1 For non-emergency personnelWear protective equipment as described under Section 8 and follow the advice for safe handling and use given under Section 7.6.1.2 For emergency respondersEmergency procedures are not required. However, respiratory protection is needed in situations with high dust levels.

6.2. Environmental precautionsDo not wash cement down sewage and drainage systems or into water courses (e.g. streams).

6.3. Containment and cleaning methods and materials Clean up the spillage or release in a dry state if possible.Dry cement - Use dry cleaning methods that do not cause airborne dispersion, for example:

- Vacuum system - Industrial portable units, equipped with high e�ciency air filters (HEPA filters) or equivalent technique); - Removal of particles by wiping - mopping or water sprays or hoses (to avoid dust dispersion) with removal of slurry.If not possible, remove slurry with water (see wet cement paste). When wet or vacuum cleaning is not possible and only dry cleaning with brushes is available, ensure that workers wear the appropriate personal protective equipment and dust dispersion.Avoid inhalation of cement and contact with skin. Place spilled materials in a container. Wet pastes must be solidified before disposal as described under Section 13.

Wet Cement – Clean up wet cement and place in a container. Allow material to dry and solidify before disposal as described under Section 13.

6.4. Reference to other sectionsSee sections 8 and 13 for further details.

SECTION 7Handling and Storage

7.1 Safe handling precautions

7.1.1 Protective measuresFollow the recommendations provided in Section 8. To clean up dry cement, see Subsection 6.3.Fire-fighting measures: Not Applicable.

Dust dispersion prevention measures: Do not sweep.Use dry clean-up methods such as vacuuming or vacuum extraction, which do not cause airborne dispersion.The "Good Practice Guides" contain advice on safe handling practices:

http://www.nepsi.eu/agreement-good-practice-guide/good-practice-guide.aspx

These good practices have been adopted as part of the European Social Dialogue Agreement on the protection of workers' health through the correct use and handling of crystalline silica and products containing crystalline silica by Employers' and Workers' Organizations through European industry associations, including CEMBUREAU.Measures to protect the environment No particular measures to be taken

7.1.2 Information on general occupational hygieneDo not handle or store near food and beverages or tobacco.In dusty environments, wear dust mask and protective goggles. Use protective gloves to avoid contact with the skin.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilitiesCement should be stored in open areas that are waterproof, dry (i.e. with internal condensation minimised), clean and protected from contamination. Engulfment hazard: To prevent burial or su�ocation, do not enter a confined space, such as a silo, hopper, tank or other storage container or vessel that stores or contains cement without taking the proper safety measures. Cement can build up or adhere to the walls of a confined space. Cement can be released, collapse or fall unexpectedly.Do not use aluminium tanks to transport or store hydraulic binders due to the incompatibility between these materials.

7.3 Specific end usesNo additional information for the specific end uses (see section 1.2).

7.4. Control of soluble Cr (VI)For cements treated with a Cr (VI) reducing agent according to the regulations provided in Section 15, the e�ectiveness of the reducing agent diminishes with time. Therefore, cement bags and/or delivery documents will contain information on the packaging date, the storage conditions and the appropriate storage period to ensure that the reducing agent keeps the content of soluble chromium (VI) below 0.0002 % of the total dry weight of the cement ready for use, in accordance with EN 196-10. They must also indicate the appropriate storage conditions for maintaining the e�ectiveness of the reducing agent.

E�ects

Limit test, rabbit, 24 hours contact, 2,000 mg/kg body weight – no lethality. Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

No acute toxicity by inhalation observed. Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

No indication of oral toxicity from studies with cement kiln dust. These powders contain clinker in various concentrations. Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

Cement in contact with wet skin may cause thickening, cracking or fissuring of the skin. Prolonged contact in combination with abrasion may cause severe burns.

Portland cement clinker caused a mixed picture of corneal e�ects and the calculated irritation index was 128. Common cements contain varying quantities of Portland cement clinker, fly ash, blast furnace slag, gypsum, limestone and other substances. Direct contact with cement may cause corneal damage due to mechanical stress, immediate or delayed irritation or inflammation. Direct contact with larger amounts of dry Portland cement or splashes of wet cement may cause e�ects ranging from moderate eye irritation (e.g. conjunctivitis or blepharitis) to chemical burns and blindness

Some individuals may develop eczema upon exposure to wet cement dust, caused either by the high pH which induces irritant contact dermatitis after prolonged contact, or by an immunological reaction to soluble Cr (VI) which causes allergic contact dermatitis. The response may appear in a variety of forms ranging from a mild rash to severe dermatitis or as a combination of these two symptoms.If the cement contains a soluble Cr (VI) reducing agent and as long as the mentioned period of e�ectiveness of the chromate reduction is not exceeded, a sensitising e�ect is not expected (Reference (3))

There is no indication of sensitisation of the respiratory tracts. Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

No indication. Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

No causal association has been established between Portland cement exposure and cancer. The epidemiological literature does not support the designation of Portland cement as a suspected human carcinogen. Portland cement is not classifiable as a human carcinogen (in accordance with ACGIH A4: agents that cause concern that they could be carcinogenic for humans but which cannot be assessed conclusively because of a lack of data. In vitro or animal studies do not provide indications of carcinogenicity that are su�cient to classify the agent with one of the other notations). Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

Clinker dust for Portland cement may irritate the throat and respiratory tract. Coughing, sneezing, and shortness of breath may occur following exposures in excess of the exposure limits.Overall, the pattern of evidence clearly indicates that occupational exposure to cement dust produces deficits in respiratory function. However, the commonly available evidence is insu�cient to establish the dose-response relationship for these e�ects with any confidence.

There is an indication of COPD. The e�ects are acute and due to high exposures. No chronic e�ects or e�ects at low concentrations have been observed.Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.

Not applicable - cements are not used as aerosols.

Apart from skin sensitisation, Portland cement clinker and common cements have the same toxicological and eco-toxicological properties.

11.2 Medical conditions aggravated by exposureInhalation of cement dust may aggravate existing respiratory diseases and / or health conditions such as emphysema or asthma and / or skin and / or eye problems.

SECTION 12.Environmental Information

12.1. ToxicityThe product is not hazardous to the environment. Ecotoxicological tests with Portland cement on Daphnia magna [(Reference (5)) and Selenas-trum coli (Reference (6)) have shown little toxicological impact. However, LC50 and EC50 values could not be determined (Reference (7)). There is no indication of sediment phase toxicity [Reference (8)]. The addition of large amounts of cement to water may, however, cause a rise in pH and may, therefore, be toxic to aquatic life under certain circumstances

12.2 Persistence and degradability.Not relevant as cement is inorganic. After hardening, cement presents no toxicity risks.

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential.Not relevant as cement is inorganic. After hardening, cement presents no toxicity risks.

12.4 Mobility in soilNot relevant as cement is inorganic. After hardening, cement presents no toxicity risks.

12.5 Results of PBT and vPvB assessment. Other adverse e�ects.Not relevant as cement is inorganic. After hardening, cement presents no toxicity risks.

12.6 Other adverse e�ects.Not relevant

SECTION 13.Disposal considerations

13.1 Waste treatment methodsDo not dispose of cement into surface waters or storm drains or sewers.Product - cement that has exceeded its shelf lifeEWC CODE 101399 (other non-specified waste)(and when demonstrated that it contains more than 0.0002% soluble Cr (VI)): not for use/sale other than in controlled closed and totally automated processes or should be recycled or disposed of according to local legislation or treated again with a reducing agent.Product - unused residue or dry spillageEWC CODE 101306 (Other particulates and dust)Dry recovery. Mark the containers. Possibly reuse, depending upon shelf life considerations and the requirement to avoid dust exposure. For disposal, harden with water and process as per “Product – after addition of water, hardening".

Product - Pastes (wet cement):Allow to harden, avoid entry in sewage and drainage systems or into bodies of water (e.g. streams) and dispose of as explained under “Product - after addition of water, hardening”.Product - after addition of water, hardening:Dispose of in accordance with local legislation. Avoid disposal into the waste water system. Dispose of hardened product as for concrete waste. Due to inertisation, concrete waste is not hazardous waste.EWC CODE 101314 (waste from cement manufacture - waste concrete or concrete sludge) or 170101 (construction and demolition wastes - concrete).
