Lakeside Drive Waukegan, IL Distributor Phone: CHEMTREC: General Use: STRETCH FILM CHEMICAL NAMES AND SYNONYMS: POLYETHYLENE NFPA Health: 0 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0 Other: Manufacturer Product Codes: Chemical Name POLYETHYLENE SECTION 2 : COMPOSITION, INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS CAS#

2 Composition/Information: INGREDIENTS CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS TO HEALTH: This product is not formulated to contain ingredients which have exposure limits established by regulatory agencies. It is not hazardous to health as defined by the European Union Dangerous Substances/Preparations Directives. See Section 15 for a regulatory analysis of the ingredients. See section 8 for exposure limits (if applicable). SECTION 3 : HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Emergency Overview: Exposure to fire can generate toxic fumes. Physical State: Plastic Film. Color: Clear US OSHA HAZARD COMMUNICATION STANDARD: Product assessed in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR and determined not to be hazardous. DOT ERG No.: Not Applicable Applies to All Ingredients: Potential Health Effects: EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: No significant effects expected. Eye Contact: Not expected to be a problem. Skin Contact: Not expected to be a problem. Inhalation: Not expected to be a problem. Ingestion: Not expected to be a problem. SECTION 4 : FIRST AID MEASURES

3 SECTION 5 : FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Fire: FLAMMABILITY: Not Applicable AUTO FLAMMABILITY: Not Established Explosion: Not Applicable Flash Point: Deg C (deg F): Not Established Upper Flammable or Explosive Limit: Not Established Lower Flammable or Explosive Limit: Not Established Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical and water fog. Fire Fighting Instructions: Use water to keep fire exposed containers cool. If a leak or Spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse the vapors and to protect personnel attempting to stop leak. Water spray may be used to flush spills away from exposures. Prevent runoff from fire control or dilution from entering streams, sewers, or drinking water supply. Protective Equipment: For fires in enclosed areas, fire fighters must use self-contained breathing apparatus. NFPA Health: 0 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0 Other: Unusual Fire Hazards: Exposure to fire can generate toxic fumes. Hazardous Decomposition Byproducts: Carbon monoxide. Acetaldehyde. Formaldehyde. Formic acid. Acetic acid.

4 SECTION 6 : ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions: See Section 8 Spill Cleanup Measures: Pick up and dispose of as normal refuse. Environmental Precautions: Prevent spills from entering storm sewers or drains and contact with soil. NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES: Not expected to be a problem. SECTION 7 : HANDLING and STORAGE Handling: Warning! This plastic film, when used to wrap pallet loads, can build a static electrical charge, which may create a possible fire or explosion hazard. Do not apply or remove the wrap where potentially flammable air/dust or air/vapor mixtures may exist. To minimize static electricity buildup, cut away film from wrapped loads. Do not strip or unwind film. Thermodegradation products of polyethylene may include acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, formic acid, acetic acid and carbon monoxide. Storage: Store in a cool area. SECTION 8 : EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION Ventilation System: Use in well ventilated area. Skin Protection Description: No special equipment required. Eye/Face Protection: Normal industrial eye protection practices should be employed. Respiratory Protection: No special requirements under ordinary conditions of use and with adequate ventilation. Exposure Limits: This product does not contain any components which have recognized exposure limits.
