SUBJ: PVC WARNING LABEL
VISTA
The OSHA VCM standard requires labeling FVC containers in the following manner: PVC: Contains Vinyl Chloride: Vinyl Chloride is a Cancer Suspect Agent.
However, as you will see in the attached correspondence we now interpret this requirement to apply only to containers containing PVC with residual VCM (RVCM) levels that could cause worker exposures exceeding 0.5 ppm. Goodrich has done a great deal of technical work and had shown this RVCM level to be greater than 8.5 ppm. As a result, we are proceeding to remove labels from our containers, where RVCM levels are below 8.5 ppm.
The attached correspondence should clarify our position and actions being taken. We are in compliance.

Enclosed are stickers and stamps to be used for any MSDSs which are distributed from the field sales offices. Please use Vista Polymers Inc. stickers and stamp for any Aberdeen products, including plasticizers and Vista Chemical Company for all other products.
The stamp should be used just below the disclaimer statement. Vista MSDSs are in production now. When completed, I will be contacting sales offices to determine needs of those who are distributing (and hopefully keeping records!).
