Safety & Health
- Health and Safety
- Health and Safety : Carbon fibers are not dangerous for health. However, as short fibers and dusts, they cause irritation on skin, eyes, tract ; the sizing sometimes causes allergies. People will have to wear dust protections as face masks, spectacles, light overalls, gloves. Carbon fibers are electricity conducting materials.
