Gasket Packing Q&A No. 7
Have regulations been established for ceramic fiber-related products?
Daiko Corporation will answer your questions regarding gaskets and packing. 〇 About RCF (Refractory Ceramic Fiber) Regulations In November 2015, the Specific Chemical Substance Hazard Prevention Regulations were amended and enforced, leading to regulations concerning the handling of RCF. The purpose is to strengthen measures to prevent health hazards for workers related to refractory ceramic fibers. The "Ordinance to Partially Amend the Enforcement Order of the Labor Safety and Health Act" (Ordinance No. 294 of 2015) was promulgated on August 12, 2015, and the "Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare Ordinance to Partially Amend the Labor Safety and Health Regulations" (Ordinance No. 141 of 2015) was promulgated on September 17, 2015. 〇 Transition to Biodegradable Ceramic Fibers In response to the regulations, we have changed the conventional ceramic fibers to biodegradable ceramic fibers developed to have solubility even when they enter the body. In terms of performance, the only difference is between fibers that dissolve in biological water (RCF-compliant products) and those that do not dissolve (RFC non-compliant products). We guarantee that there are no products that are inferior in performance compared to existing products.
