SAFETY DATA SHEET

CERAMIC TILE

Ceramic Tile (For purposes of this SDS, the term “ceramic” encompasses all types of tile

products manufactured/sourced by Dal-Tile Corporation.)

Tile Series:

NORWOOD MOSAICS

Building Material - Tile products manufactured/sourced by Dal-Tile Corporation are

environmentally preferable building materials when compared to other floor/wall coverings. As

defined by guidelines issued by the Environmental Protection Agency, the American Society for

Testing & Materials, and the Federal Trade Commission, Tile is one of the most environmentally

friendly building materials you can buy today. Should you desire additional information, please

direct your inquiry to the address above.

Tile products are mixtures of predominantly clays, silica sand, and other natural occurring minerals that have been mixed with water and

fired in a high temperature kiln. The finished, fired tiles are odorless, stable, non-flammable, and pose no immediate hazard to health.

Respiratory, hand and eye protection may be needed to prevent excess exposure to airborne particulates if dust is produced by cutting tiles

during installation or if dust is produced by any other operations, including demolition/removal projects.

This document has been prepared in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard
