2. Hazard(s) identification
Emergency overview This product is not hazardous in the form in which it is shipped by the manufacturer but may
become hazardous by downstream activities (e.g., grinding, sanding, cutting, pulverizing) that
reduce its particle size. Those hazards are described below.
Physical hazards Combustible dusts Category 1
Health hazards Eye irritation Category 2B
Material name: WOOD AND WOOD PRODUCTS SDS CANADA
3. Composition/information on ingredients
Mixtures
Chemical name Common name and synonyms CAS number %
WOOD/WOOD DUST Not assigned 60 - 100
All concentrations are in percent by weight unless ingredient is a gas. Gas concentrations are in percent by volume.
Composition comments Some lumber products may be sprayed with sap stain control coatings. The lumber is air or kiln
dried. No chemical residue is left on the surface of the board. Wood products are bonded with
phenol, phenol resorcinol, melamine formaldehyde-based, or polyvinyl acetate resin. Some wood
products may be coated with finishes, sealants and or overlays.
4. First-aid measures
Inhalation Remove from area of exposure. If the affected person is not breathing, apply artificial respiration. If
persistent irritation, severe coughing or breathing difficulty occurs, seek medical attention.
Skin contact If irritation develops, wash with soap and water. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical
advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Eye contact Do not rub eyes. Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Rinse with
water. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical attention
immediately. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Ingestion If wood or wood dust is swallowed, get immediate medical attention or advice -- Do not induce
vomiting.

5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Apply extinguishing media carefully
to avoid creating airborne dust. Avoid high pressure media which could cause the formation of a
potentially explosible dust-air mixture.
Unsuitable extinguishing Heavy water (or jet) stream may cause dust to become airborne and create a flash fire hazard or
media an explosive atmosphere.
Specific hazards arising from Explosion hazard: Avoid generating dust; fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations and
the chemical in the presence of an ignition source is a potential dust explosion hazard. During fire, gases
hazardous to health may be formed.
Special protective equipment Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
and precautions for
firefighters
Fire fighting In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Move containers from fire area if you can do
equipment/instructions so without risk.
Specific methods To avoid dust clouds, responders should use the extinguisher from as far away as possible and
apply the extinguishing agent as gently as possible. The main considerations with hose stream
operation are to avoid creating combustible dust clouds or introducing more air. In particular, the
use of solid streams and direct dust pile hits can disperse dust into the air creating a potential flash
fire hazard. The best way to apply water is in a medium to wide-pattern, as gently as possible.
Responders should use a low nozzle pressure and loft the stream onto the burning material from as
far away as the stream will reach.
General fire hazards May form combustible dust concentrations in air.
Precautionary statement
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Wear protective gloves/protective
clothing/eye protection/face protection. Wear respiratory protection. Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. Prevent dust accumulation and
airborne dispersion of dust to minimize flash fire and explosion hazard. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition
sources. No smoking. IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If
eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of water. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
Take off contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse. IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If experiencing
respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER/doctor. IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. In case of fire: Use appropriate media to
extinguish. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Dispose of contents/container in
accordance with local/regional/national/international regulations.

Danger
Mention de danger
Peut provoquer une allergie cutanée. Provoque une irritation des yeux Peut provoquer des symptômes allergiques ou d’asthme ou des difficultés
respiratoires par inhalation. Peut irriter les voies respiratoires. Peut provoquer le cancer. Si des petites particules de poussière de bois sont émises par
des activités de transformation, de manipulation ou par d’autres moyens, elles peuvent former des concentrations de poussières combustibles dans l’air.
Conseil de prudence
Se procurer les instructions avant utilisation. Ne pas manipuler avant d’avoir lu et compris toutes les précautions de sécurité. Porter des gants/vêtements
de protection/ équipement de protection des yeux/du visage. Porter une protection respiratoire. Éviter de respirer les
poussières/fumées/gaz/brouillards/vapeurs/aérosols. Se laver soigneusement après manipulation. Utiliser seulement en plein air ou dans un endroit bien
ventilé. Les vêtements de travail contaminés ne devraient pas sortir du lieu de travail. Éviter l’empoussièrement et la dispersion des particules de
poussière dans l’air afin de minimiser les risques d’inflammation instantanée et d’explosion. Tenir à l’écart de la chaleur, des surfaces chaudes, des
étincelles, des flammes nues et de toute autre source d’ignition. Ne pas fumer. EN CAS DE CONTACT AVEC LES YEUX: Rincer avec précaution à l’eau
pendant plusieurs minutes. Enlever les lentilles de contact si la victime en porte et si elles peuvent être facilement enlevées. Continuer à rincer. Si
l’irritation des yeux persiste : Demander un avis médical/Consulter un médecin. EN CAS DE CONTACT AVEC LA PEAU: Laver abondamment à l'eau. En
cas d’irritation ou d’éruption cutanée : Obtenir une consultation médicale ou des soins médicaux. Enlever les vêtements contaminés et les laver avant
réutilisation. EN CAS D'INHALATION: Transporter la personne à l'extérieur et la maintenir dans une position où elle peut confortablement respirer. En cas
de symptômes respiratoires: Appeler un CENTRE ANTIPOISON/un médecin. EN CAS d’exposition prouvée ou suspectée : Demander un avis
médical/Consulter un médecin. En cas d’incendie : utiliser un agent d’extinction approprié. Stocker dans un endroit bien ventilé. Conserver à l'écart de
