Handling

  • Keep all materials in original sleeves or boxes if possible.
  • Never attempt to unroll, unwind or dry tapes.
  • Drain excess water.
  • Wear disposable gloves and masks while handling.

Packing

  • Pack wet materials in heavy duty vinyl crates if available.
  • Plastic lined, heavy duty cardboard boxes can also be used.
