Safety Data sheet and Health information
In
1889,
Lefranc & Bourgeois began listing the chemical composition of the pigments used in their paints on the tube.
More than a century later,
Lefranc & Bourgeois are still as anxious to provide the user with essential product information.
This site offers access to the database containing the Safety Information Sheets for all
Lefranc & Bourgeois products, in accordance with European legislation on chemicals.
These safety sheets give information on:
- identifying potential dangers
- chemical substances used
- first aid measures in the case of an accident
- precautions for storage
- toxicological data
- legislation on transportation of products ...
Lefranc & Bourgeois products do not present any major hazard when used with care.
It should, however, be emphasised that as with other chemical products, high standards of general hygiene should be
adhered to, both during and after use of these products and warnings given on individual products should be adhered to.
Prolonged contact with the skin and ingestion (even if not voluntary) of the product should be avoided.
This includes avoiding practices such as applying colour with the fingers or pointing brushes in the mouth.
