From their "Testing and Technical Data" page (http://www.ecopoxysystems.com/test_data.html):
"EcoPoxy contains no toxic organic compounds and heavy metals and therefore offer the user high performance products with minimum hazard potential when properly used. EcoPoxy resins and hardeners will present no handling problems if users exercise care to protect the skin and eyes and adequate ventilation is provided in work areas. [b]However, all epoxy resins and hardeners can be irritating to the skin and prolonged contact may result in sensitization; and inhalation of mist vapors may cause allergenic respiratory reaction, especially in highly sensitive individuals.[/b]
As such, avoid contact with eyes and skin, and avoid breathing vapors. Wear protective rubber apron, clothing, gloves, face-shield or other items as required to prevent contact with the skin. In case of skin contact, immediately wash with soap and water, followed by a rinse of the area with vinegar and a final wash with soap and water. The vinegar will neutralize the hardener and lessen the chances of long term effects. Use goggles, a face-shield or safety glasses and other items as required to prevent contact with the eyes. If material gets into the eyes, immediately flush with water for at least 15 minutes and call a physician. Generally, keep the work area as uncluttered and clean as possible, and clean up any minor spills immediately to prevent accidental skin contact at a later time. Keep tools clean and properly stored. Dispose of trash and empty containers properly. Do not use any of these types of products until Material Safety Data Sheets have been read and understood."
