Always wear a dust mask to prevent inhalation. Calcium carbonate powder, while generally safe, can irritate the lungs if breathed in.
Use eye protection. Powder can cause eye irritation. Safety glasses or goggles are recommended.
Avoid skin contact. Wear gloves to minimize direct contact. Wash thoroughly with soap and water if contact occurs.
Handle in a well-ventilated area. This minimizes dust accumulation and improves air quality.
Store in a sealed container. Keep away from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain quality and prevent clumping.
Clean up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth or brush to avoid raising dust.
