Diisocyanater (engelsk/polsk)

From August 24, 2023, anyone using or handling diisocyanates and diisocyanate-containing mixtures and products must have completed safe use training. MDCO offers such training in some variants.

• What are diisocyanates
• Information and labelling of chemicals
• The health hazards of diisocyanates
• Risk factors
• Preventive measures
• Emergencies and First Aid
• Assistance to businesses

There are three different levels of training requirements, based on risk:

Level 1 - Basic level

Applies to those who use or handle products containing diisocyanates, and to supervisors of employees who use products containing isocyanates.
Example: short-term work involving low-volatility isocyanate products (such as construction foam, viscous adhesives, etc.).

‍

Level 2 - Intermediate level – extended course is required

Applies to those who use products with diisoscyanates for the application of substances with e.g. spraying, rolling, dripping, cleaning, work in open spaces, etc. (e.g. spraying in a paint booth or processing of uncured products).

Level 3 - Advanced level – extended course is required

Applies to those who use products with diisocyanates with higher risk work, e.g. at higher temperatures (casting, processing hot uncured products above 45°C, spraying in open air or outside a paint booth).

For basic level (level 1), MDCO in collaboration with FIDL, offers a game-based e-learning course with a follow-up webinar. At the webinar, an occupational hygienist will do a short repetition of some important points from the e-learning and there will be time to ask questions. Registration is done in the registration form on this page.

‍

For intermediate (level 2) and advanced level (level 3), there is a need for extended and specially adapted education. This can be done by one of our occupational hygienists, either as:

1. FIDL e-learning course (level 1) + adapted digital or physical program (level 2 and/or 3)
2. The entire course digitally or physically (levels 1-3)

If you are unsure of what level of training your business needs, or to arrange a course/receive offers, contact us with the registration form on this page or at post@mdco.no.
