Safety & Health

Toxicity

Tests conducted through independent laboratories have found Brilliant Group BNFC Series fluorescent pigments to be “essentially non-toxic.” A summary of the test data is listed on the SDS which is available upon request. Good industrial hygiene and handling methods are essential in theuse of all products whether or not they are determined to be hazardous.

Storage & Handling

Storage

When stored in a cool, dry environment, BNFC pigments have an indefinite shell life. Colorant containers should be kept closed to minimize contamination.
