Safety & Health

Safety Information

To minimize the risk of burns, we recommend the use of eye protection and protective clothing when working near a hot melt applicator. To minimize the risk of flammable vapors, do not exceed a melt temperature above 400°F. Prevent the build-up of vapors. Extinguish all sources of ignition during hot melt use.
