What are diisocyanates?<\/strong><\/h3>\nDiisocyanates are a type of chemical compounds that contain two isocyanate groups in their molecule. They play a central role in the production of extremely versatile, flexible and durable polyurethanes, which are used in a wide range of everyday products such as insulating materials, adhesives, foams, but also in coatings.<\/p>\n

What are the hazards of diisocyanates?<\/strong><\/h3>\nIf diisocyanates are inhaled as vapours or particles or get on the skin and in the eyes, they can cause irritation, allergic reactions or even asthma. That is why there are specific safety regulations and training obligations for diisocyanates that are mandatory in the EU. Such instructions teach users how to handle diisocyanates safely, for example by wearing protective clothing and using appropriate PSA.<\/p>\n
It is important that both employers and their employees understand the importance of diisocyanate training and attend it regularly. In this way, safety in the workplace can be ensured and health risks minimised.<\/p>\n","width":"4","background_color_text":"bg-none","border_color":"border-none"},{"text":"

Who is subject to mandatory training and where can it be obtained?<\/h3>\n
Diisocyanate training must be carried out by all professional and industrial users who work with products containing diisocyanates or in whose production diisocyanates are used, e.g. floor layers. It must be repeated at least every five years. If you have not already taken part in KLB training courses, you can also receive training via the official website.<\/p>\n
As a KLB customer, you can attend the training for free!
