Safety Information

Handle zinc antimicrobial agents with appropriate protective equipment including dust masks, gloves, and safety goggles when handling powder forms. Avoid inhalation of particles and ensure adequate ventilation during processing. Zinc compounds are generally safe but follow proper industrial hygiene practices for metal-based antimicrobials.

Avoid Dust Inhalation
Use Protective Gloves
Eye Protection Required

Storage & Handling

Store zinc antimicrobial agents in original sealed containers in a cool, dry environment away from incompatible materials. Protect from moisture and humidity to prevent particle agglomeration. Use appropriate mixing equipment to ensure uniform dispersion and avoid contamination with organic materials that may affect performance.
