Mechanical risks

The product has movable parts that can cause a variety of mechanical hazards during operation, which can lead to serious injuries.

Crushing and crushing: There is a risk that the moving parts of the product will crush or crush the body. It can lead to serious injury or permanent injury.

Cuts and punctures: Cuts, cuts, and even deeper injuries can occur if the user comes into contact with sharp edges or product components.

Impact and Fall Injuries: These can occur when objects fall over and fall from a height or are moved in an improper and dangerous manner. This can cause serious injuries, including broken bones and head injuries.

Trapping: If a body part becomes trapped between moving parts, it can lead to serious injury and loss of limbs.

Vibration: Exposure to prolonged vibration while using the device can damage muscles and nerves. This can lead to vibration syndrome, causing pain and dysfunction in the limbs.

To minimise these risks, it is recommended to use appropriate personal protective equipment, regularly inspect and maintain the equipment, and follow all manufacturer's recommendations for safe use and health and safety (Occupational Health and Safety) regulations.

Chemical risks

When using chemical products, a variety of chemical hazards can occur, which can lead to serious consequences.

Chemical spills: These can occur due to packaging damage, misstorage, or misuse. Spills lead to environmental contamination, property damage and exposure of human health to toxic substances.

Chemical reactions: Uncontrolled chemical reactions can occur when different chemicals interact. This can lead to explosions, fires or the release of harmful gases that can be dangerous to health and life.

Corrosion and degradation of materials: Certain chemicals can cause corrosion and degradation of materials they come into contact with.  This can lead to a weakening of the structure of materials, which in turn can cause equipment and structures to fail.

Poisoning: Improper use of chemical products can lead to inhalation, ingestion, or absorption through the skin. This can lead to poisoning, which can have serious health effects and even be life-threatening.

To minimize these risks, it is recommended to read the information on the packaging and in the safety data sheets, use appropriate personal protective equipment, follow safety procedures, regularly inspect equipment in which chemicals are used to check for tightness and correct closure of packaging,  and appropriate storage and use of chemicals.

Environmental risks

A variety of environmental hazards can occur during the use and disposal of products, which can lead to serious consequences.

Environmental pollution: Products, especially those containing chemicals or plastic, can contribute to soil, water, and air pollution. This can lead to the degradation of ecosystems, groundwater and surface water pollution, and negative impacts on human and animal health.

Improper disposal of products: Improper waste management can lead to the uncontrolled spread of toxins and contaminants. This can result in severe environmental pollution, risks to public health, and the loss of valuable natural resources through a lack of recycling.

Electronic waste (e-waste): Electronic products, when not properly disposed of, can become a source of e-waste containing harmful chemicals and heavy metals. This can lead to soil and water contamination, as well as pose a risk to human and animal health.

To minimise environmental risks, it is recommended to manage waste appropriately, including segregation and compliance with environmental regulations.
