RECHTSVORSCHRIFTEN
This product is not hazardous according to European Directive 99/45/EC, 67/548/EEC and their
latest amendment
Information on non carcinogenicity
According to E.U. Directives the continuous filament glass fibers in these products are not
classified as carcinogenic.
Continuous filament glass fibers are not within the scope of Directive 67/548/EEC per amendment
97/69/EC since they are not "fibres with random orientation."
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in June, 1987, and in October, 2001,
categorized continuous filament fiber glass as not classifiable with respect to human carcinogen-
icity (Group 3). The evidence from human, as well as, animal studies was evaluated by IARC as
insufficient to classify continuous filament fiber glass as a confirmed, probable or even possible
cancer causing material.
