Health and Safety

Introduction

Citronix supplies Safety Data Sheets (SDS) giving specific safety information with each of its ink, make-

up and wash fluids. There are also warnings on each container. The following notes are for general

guidance only.

Basic Requirements

When used correctly, printing inks do not cause problems. However, everybody using them should be

familiar with the appropriate safety standards and be aware of the precautions that should be taken. The

following are basic requirements:

Proper standards of industrial practice relating to cleanliness and tidiness must be maintained.

Inks and their containers must be stored and handled with care.

Smoking or the use of open flames (or other sources of ignition) in the vicinity of any inks or

solvents is highly dangerous and therefore strictly inadvisable.

All who come into contact with inks must be properly instructed in their use.

Directions for safe working practices vary according to the environment. The following are broad

principles so that necessary precautions may be taken:

Contact with the mouth must be avoided. Therefore, eating, drinking or smoking, or any personal

habits or actions which may transfer ink to the mouth, must be avoided.

Contact with the eyes must be avoided. Suitable eye protection must always be worn whenever

there is any risk of splashing or misting. If ink does get into the eyes, first aid treatment is to flood

the affected eye for 15 minutes with saline solution, (or clean water if saline solution is not
