    Like MDF before it.
    Concrete dust will likely be added to the list soon enough.

    Been around for 50+ years, business taking shortcuts on safety is nothing new. These materials should be wet cut/polished, full ppe, ventilation etc required when working with the material.

    True @Scott No Mates
    It isn't so much business, as label's have been put on various products for years, it comes down to the individual and a "she'll be right" attitude to save a minute or two :oops:

    When I was young I was often told to be careful of my back, not to bend like or lift that....:confused:
    But I was 6.1 and bullet proof :rolleyes:
    Fast forward 30 years and I'm not quite 6ft and "very careful" as I am now feeling my age :(

    Ahhh the wisdom of youth o_O
    (I bet Greta will regret her speech in 15-20 years :p )
    (Yes, that is sarcasm for all the haters in another thread :D )
