SECTION 4: First aid measures

4.1. Description of first aid measures

General information When it is safe to do so, remove victim immediately from source of exposure. However,
consideration should be given as to whether moving the victim will cause further injury. For
immediate First Aid advice in the UK, dial 111.

Inhalation Remove affected person from source of contamination. Move affected person to fresh air and
keep warm and at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If breathing stops, provide
artificial respiration. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.

Ingestion Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth thoroughly with water. Place unconscious person on the
side in the recovery position and ensure breathing can take place. Get medical attention.

Skin contact Remove contaminated clothing that is not stuck to the skin. Flush area with clean water.
Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.

Eye contact Remove any contact lenses and open eyelids wide apart. Continue to rinse for at least 15
minutes and get medical attention.

4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
General information Neat product may cause chemical burns and permanent eye damage. Dilute product may
cause irritation to the skin and eyes.

3/12
Revision date: 18/05/2022

CPP H12 SINK AND DRAIN UNBLOCKER

Inhalation Inhalation of neat product is unlikely. However, inhalation of mists or vapours of diluted
product may result in soreness, irritation or burns to the mouth, nose and respiratory tract. If
mixed with acid products Chlorine Gas may be evolved, this can result in irritation to eyes and
difficulty in breathing. If inhaled this may result in irritation to the mouth nose and respiratory
tract.

Ingestion Unlikely route of exposure without deliberate abuse. If neat chemical is ingested, chemical
burning of mouth, throat and GI tract will occur. If dilute chemical is ingested, soreness of
mouth, throat and GI tract may occur together with redness and blistering.

Skin contact May cause serious chemical burns to the skin.

Eye contact May result in permanent eye damage.

4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes for the doctor Rinse well with water to neutral pH. If mixed with acidic material will produce Chlorine Gas,
check for respiratory disorders.

SECTION 5: Firefighting measures

5.1. Extinguishing media

Suitable extinguishing media The product is non-combustible. Use fire-extinguishing media suitable for the surrounding fire.

5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

Specific hazards This product is non combustible, on heating corrosive vapours may be formed. Contact with
acids liberates Toxic Chlorine Gas. In contact with some metals (Aluminium, Zinc and their
Alloys) Hydrogen Gas is formed, which may form an explosive mixture with air. Note -
Comment refers to neat product.

5.3. Advice for firefighters

Protective actions during Protective clothing and respiratory protection should be worn when tackling fires involving this
firefighting product. Control run-off water by containing and keeping it out of sewers and watercourses.

Special protective equipment Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective
for firefighters clothing.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Personal precautions Wear protective clothing as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet.

6.2. Environmental precautions

Environmental precautions Spillages or uncontrolled discharges into watercourses must be reported immediately to the
Environmental Agency or other appropriate regulatory body. Avoid or minimise the creation of
any environmental contamination.

6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Methods for cleaning up Stop leak if possible without risk. Dike far ahead of larger spills for later disposal. Absorb in
vermiculite, dry sand or earth and place into containers. Collect and place in suitable waste
disposal containers and seal securely. For waste disposal, see Section 13. Containers with
collected spillage must be properly labelled with correct contents and hazard symbol.

6.4. Reference to other sections

Reference to other sections See sections 8,12 & 13

4/12
Revision date: 18/05/2022

CPP H12 SINK AND DRAIN UNBLOCKER

Usage precautions Wear suitable protective equipment for prolonged exposure and/or high concentrations of
vapours, spray or mist. Read and follow manufacturer's recommendations.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Storage precautions Store in tightly-closed, original container in a well-ventilated place. Store in a demarcated
bunded area to prevent release to drains and/or watercourses. Store between 5 and 30
Degrees C. Store away from the following materials: Acids.

7.3. Specific end use(s)

Specific end use(s) Detergent, refer to use instructions.

Usage description This product is suitable for use in food preparation areas, but is not designed for direct food
contact.

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/Personal protection

8.1. Control parameters

Occupational exposure limits
SODIUM HYDROXIDE
Short-term exposure limit (15-minute): WEL 2 mg/m³
WEL = Workplace Exposure Limit.

Ingredient comments Where an exposure level is quoted, a risk assessment should consider if there is a need to
monitor the atmosphere of the working environment. Results should be compared against the
WEL and/or DNEL information provided. The Long Term WEL refers to total exposure of a
worker to a specific substance averaged out over an 8 hour period.
The Short Term WEL refers to a single exposure of a worker to a specific substance over a 15
minute period.
If the Short Term WEL is exceeded and no Long Term Limit is set, further exposure during the
working shift is not permitted. Further controls should be implemented to ensure that future
exposure to the substance is reduced below the levels set before the activity is
repeated/continued. Where no Short Term WEL exists, guidance from the HSE is to use a
value of three times the Long Term WEL.
The WEL limits are laid down in the EH40 list as supplied by the HSE. Where a worker is
exposed to levels approaching a limit, further exposure control measures should be
considered to reduce exposure to the substance. DNEL and/or PNEC information is supplied
by manufacturers of substances in accordance with REACH legislation (Regulation (EC) No
1907/2006) , and is used to provide suitable risk reduction measures to limit exposure of the
user of the substance to a non hazardous level. If the measured level of exposure by a route
divided by the DNEL for the route is greater than 1, then further exposure controls should be
implemented as described in section 8.2. Where new information becomes available under
REACH, this will be passed on as revisions to the Safety Data Sheet.

Ecotoxicity This product is classified as very toxic to aquatic life, this refers to the neat product. Normal
use is not expected to pose a risk.

12.1. Toxicity
Toxicity Normal use is not expected to pose an ecological risk.

Acute aquatic toxicity

Acute toxicity - fish To the best of our current knowledge, the main ecotoxicological effect is due to the Sodium
Hypochlorite for which:-
The Fresh Water LC50 (96hr) is 0.06mg/l.
The Marine Water LC50 (96hr) is 0.032 mg/l.
The Fresh Water EC50 (48hr) value for Daphnia magna is 0.141mg/l.
The Marine Water EC50(48hr) value for Crassostrea virginica is 0.026mg/l.
The NOEC (Algae 7 day) Fresh Water 0.0021.

Note in addition to Hypochlorite, high pH has the potential to cause harm to the environment.
Effluent pH values greater than 10.5 in fresh water may be fatal to fish and other aquatic
organisms. Damage to aquatic plants is also possible.

Normal use is unlikely to pose a risk. - See note 12.
