Center for the Polyurethanes Industry Updates Video Series on Safe Handling of MDI and TDI
WASHINGTON – The American Chemical Council’s Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI) has released its updated Safe Handling of Methylene Diphenyl Diisocycanate (MDI) and Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI) video series. These two training programs are designed to inform employers and employees of the potential hazards associated with transporting these materials and best practices to minimize potential risk.
“MDI and TDI are key building blocks used in some of our most useful products including building materials like insulation, roofing and coatings; comfort materials like mattresses, furniture and transportation seating; apparel and footwear; and as key components in composites and binders for many uses,” said Lee Salamone, Senior Director, CPI. “Shipments of these materials are often made via highway and rail, and this educational video series reinforces the industry’s commitment to fostering product health and safety.”
