Hazard Identification
Warning is the signal word here, alongside a two-point classification: Mild Skin Irritant and Eye Irritant. Precautionary language from the sheet: "Avoid contact of liquid concentrated product with eyes and skin. Wash hands thoroughly after use. If in eyes: Rinse with water for a few minutes. Consult physician if symptoms occur. If on skin: Rinse with water. Consult physician if symptoms occur."
First Aid Measures
The SDS treatment section, quoted directly:
- Eyes: "Rinse with water for a few minutes. Consult physician if symptoms occur."
- Skin: "Rinse with water. Consult physician if symptoms occur."
- Ingestion: "Get medical attention if symptoms occurs."
- Inhalation: "No special measures required. Treat symptomatically."
Section 4 notes the product is an irritant to the skin and eyes, that no delayed effects are known, and that the typical routes of exposure are the skin and eyes.
Handling and Storage
Wash thoroughly after handling, and keep the product out of reach of children. The sheet lists no specific storage measures beyond normal precautions, and identifies strong oxidizers as the product's incompatible materials.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
The SDS lists eye protection, protective gloves, and respiratory protection as PPE categories to evaluate for the task at hand, without marking any of them as mandatory on the sheet itself. Partners Dogs practice: wear gloves and eye protection when handling the concentrated product, and follow label directions for the diluted wash-cycle use.
Spill Response
Use personal protective equipment as required, and avoid letting large amounts of spilled material or runoff reach soil or surface waterways. A water rinse is the sheet's directed method for final cleanup.
Physical and Chemical Properties
Pet Clean Laundry Detergent is a blue, viscous liquid with a citrus odor, a boiling point near 212°F, a specific gravity of 1.017, and a pH of 8.5 (plus or minus 0.5). Its flash point is listed as none to boiling, and it is stable, with no known incompatibilities and the SDS notes it may emit hazardous fumes under fire conditions.
Where We Use It
The laundry room is where this one lives, washing bedding, towels, and blankets at both campuses. Fourth on the usage list, behind our disinfectant, odor digester, and degreaser, it is still a routine part of daily turnover rather than an occasional product.
