Health & Safety & Disposal
- When handling powdered ceramic materials, you must wear an FFP3/P2 face mask and nitrile gloves to prevent inhalation and skin contact.
- Wear a wipeable apron, polyester overalls, or similar. Clean or wash frequently.
- Always clean your studio with a wet sponge rather than sweeping to stop dust from becoming airborne.
- When preparing glazes, add the dry material to water, not vice-versa, to minimise dust formation.
- Do not allow eating and drinking in the studio and thoroughly wash hands when leaving.
- Never eat, drink, or apply cosmetics in areas where clay or glazes are handled.
- Ensure emergency eye-washing facilities are available in the room.
- Review official guidelines regarding studio ventilation and chemical management routinely.
Pure cellulose fibre itself is a non-toxic, non-hazardous substance under the UK CLP/REACH regulations when handled properly. However, its fine dust poses dust explosion risks and respiratory irritation.
Dispose of as normal industrial waste, in accordance with local/regional/national/international regulations.
