In October 2001, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
classified mineral wool fibers (rock or slag) as Group 3 (not classifiable as to
carcinogenicity to humans). IARC noted specifically: “no evidence of increased
risks of lung cancer or mesothelioma (cancer of the lining of the body cavities)
from occupational exposures during manufacture of these materials, and
inadequate evidence overall of any cancer risk.” this was a reversal of the IARC
finding in 1987 of a Group 2B designation (possibly carcinogenic to humans)
• Eyes: Direct contact with eye can cause mechanical irritation.
• Skin: The material (when in wet state or as a dust) is not
chemically harmful if it comes in contact with the skin and is
not immediately washed off. However, direct contact of dust
and mineral wool fibers with skin can cause skin irritation
(mechanical) and itchiness.
• Ingestion: No known effects.
• Inhalation: Inhalation of dust can cause nose, throat, lungs
and upper respiratory tract irritation. Persons exposed to dust
may be forced to leave area because of nuisance conditions
such as coughing, sneezing and nasal irritation.
• Chronic: Persons with chronic or systemic skin or eye disease
should use precautions and wear all personal protective
equipment when working with this product.
