What is the EU Classification of Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF)?
The effect of a European Directive, 97/69/EC, published in 1997 was to classify RCF as a category 2 carcinogen. Since 1997, a number of downstream regulations have applied to the use of RCF and have resulted in increased costs of compliance for manufacturers, suppliers and users. For a more detailed explanation please refer to Fact sheet 1 in the Superwool 607 HT launch documentation.
