Safety Information

Key Hazards

  • Prolonged or repeated skin contact can clog pores and cause oil acne or folliculitis
  • Used oil may contain harmful impurities accumulated during service
  • Will burn at high temperatures despite low flammability classification
  • Ingestion may cause nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
  • Inhalation of vapors or mists may cause respiratory irritation

First Aid Guide

Eye Contact

Rinse the eye thoroughly with large quantities of water. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.

Skin Contact

Remove contaminated clothing and flush the affected area with water. Wash with soap if available. Obtain medical attention for persistent irritation.

Inhalation

No treatment is necessary under normal use conditions. Seek medical advice if symptoms develop.

Ingestion

Medical advice should be obtained, particularly if large quantities are swallowed.

Protection Needed

Eyes

Wear safety glasses or a full face shield if splashing is likely. Must be approved to EU Standard EN166.

Hands

Wear approved gloves (EN374 standard) made from PVC, neoprene, or nitrile rubber when hand contact may occur. Ensure gloves are worn on clean hands and replace contaminated gloves. Wash and dry hands thoroughly after use and apply non-perfumed moisturizer.

Respiratory

Not normally required under standard use. If engineering controls fail to maintain safe airborne concentrations, use air-filtering respirators with masks and filters suitable for combined particulate and organic gases (boiling point >65°C) meeting EN14387.

Skin/Body

Standard work clothes provide adequate protection under normal conditions. No additional skin protection is ordinarily required beyond normal issue work clothing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Safety Data Sheet (SDS)?

A Safety Data Sheet is a standardised document that provides detailed information about a chemical product’s hazards, safe handling procedures, storage requirements, and emergency measures. Under UK REACH and CLP regulations, suppliers must provide an SDS for hazardous substances to ensure workers can handle them safely.

How often should Safety Data Sheets be updated?

Safety Data Sheets should be reviewed and updated whenever new hazard information becomes available, when regulations change, or when the product formulation changes. Suppliers must update SDSs promptly and provide revised versions to customers. As a best practice, review your SDS library at least annually to ensure all documents are current.

Who is responsible for maintaining Safety Data Sheets?

Employers are legally responsible for obtaining and maintaining current SDSs for all hazardous substances used in their workplace. While suppliers must provide SDSs, employers must ensure they’re accessible to workers, kept up-to-date, and used to inform COSHH risk assessments and safe working procedures.

What are the 16 sections of a Safety Data Sheet?

The 16 mandatory SDS sections are: (1) Identification, (2) Hazard identification, (3) Composition/ingredients, (4) First-aid measures, (5) Fire-fighting measures, (6) Accidental release measures, (7) Handling and storage, (8) Exposure controls/PPE, (9) Physical properties, (10) Stability and reactivity, (11) Toxicological information, (12) Ecological information, (13) Disposal, (14) Transport, (15) Regulatory information, and (16) Other information.
