Innova Product Safety
Innova is committed to educating all users in the safe use of our products and we want everyone to return home healthy to your family and friends.
Silica, also known as Quartz, is the second most abundant mineral in the Earth’s crust which makes it a practical and viable solution for formulating construction materials. Engineered stone, concrete, bricks, grout, mortar, tiles, autoclaved-aerated concrete (AAC) and fibre cement are all materials that are defined as a Crystalline Silica Substance (CSS).
Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) is a byproduct of a CSS and deemed Hazardous by the Hazardous Chemical Information Scheme from Safe Work Australia.
Innova products in their manufactured state do not release airborne Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS). RCS occurs during the installation of fibre cement products with mechanical methods such as cutting, rebating and drilling. This is an occupational hazard that can
be safely managed by adopting best practices, which includes awareness, safe work methods, equipment and Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE). Innova recommends keeping exposures to dust as low as practicable and work in a well-ventilated space.
