Always wear a dust mask when handling calcium carbonate powder to prevent inhalation. This minimizes the risk of respiratory irritation.
Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. Wear safety goggles and gloves. In case of contact, flush the affected area with plenty of water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.
Handle calcium carbonate powder in a well-ventilated area. Good ventilation reduces the concentration of airborne dust particles.
Store the powder in a tightly sealed container in a dry place, away from moisture and incompatible substances. This prevents clumping and degradation.
Properly label containers clearly with the name, date, and any relevant hazard warnings. This ensures safe identification and handling.

Dispose of calcium carbonate powder waste according to local regulations. This protects the environment from potential contamination.
Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed information on handling, storage, and disposal procedures. The SDS provides comprehensive safety guidelines.
