Toxic and hazardous substances

Every day we bring into our homes countless chemicals, more or less dangerous that require caution and care when they are used and stored.

However, as we can see how dangerous they?

A simple and immediate way consists of a careful reading the explanatory label which, for products classified as hazardous; it must be stated on the packaging. However, not always such an action enables us to understand the characteristics of a product.

Some symbols are spread evenly in all the countries of the EEC and allow everyone an immediate display of the product characteristics.

Poison is placed compulsorily on all wrappers or containers of substances classified as very hazardous to health that, if ingested, can affect the life.

Harmful substance indicates a serious danger but generic. Even this symbol indicates a health hazard, but with a hazard index more modest compared to the poison, of type harmful and / or irritating.

Corrosive substance: in this class are grouped all the substances destructive towards biological tissues, must be used with very carefully.

Flammable substances: the flame in the environmental conditions indicates that the substance emits vapors that form flammable mixtures with air and this tendency increases with increasing temperature. It is clear, therefore, that these products should not be placed approximately possible triggers such as open flames, glowing objects, etc.

All these symbols may appear alone, associated with each other or together with other symbols. In addition, not throw these substances in the trash ordinary.

Each chemical product must be subject to knowledge on the part of the consumer. When it comes to safety, fate and fortune have little to do and only knowledge can prevent hazards to ourselves and those around.
