and put it in well identified bags or containers for its subsequent destruction
by authorized companies. Wash contaminated surfaces using carbonated or
soapy and then pack the cleaning fluid. Avoid the contamination of still or
running waters. In the event of water sources spillages, interrupt immediately
the human or animal consumption and contact to the company emergency
center
.
In the event of fire, irritating and possible toxic gases may be generated by thermal
decomposition and combustion. Use an extinguishing agent: powder,
alcohol-resistant, foam, carbon dioxide or water spray. Do not use direct jet of
water. Wear protective and proper clothing and oxygen mask. Evacuate affected
areas. Prevent entrance into the affected area until decontamination. Do not allow
fire to spread and enterrs into drains or water conducts. Contain and collect spillage
with non-combustion absorbent material (for example, sand, earth, diatomaceous
earth vermiculite) and place them in container for disposal according to
local/national regulations
Empty containers cannot be used again. Add water until covering ¼ of the
container capacity, close it and agitate for 30 seconds. Then, pour the water
of the container in the dispenser (consider this water volume within the
recommended volume of the mixture). Then, carry out this procedure three
times. Finally, make the container useless by perforating it or trying not to
damage the label when carrying out this operation. The perforated containers
