FIRE SAFETY PRESENTATION
Strictly enforce no smoking and carrying of matches/lighters in EPS storage
and converting areas. Keep all raw materials in a well-ventilated area away from open flames.
Allow at least 15 minutes after opening an EPS container for pentane vapors
to dissipate. Do not use any portable containers (e.g., buckets, scoops) with metal components
to transfer beads out of cartons. Properly bond and ground all process equipment and piping.
Regularly test and maintain all bonding and grounding systems.
Provide adequate ventilation to minimize pentane vapor accumulation.
Minimize accumulation of beads and pre-puff on floors and equipment.
Do not lean over or reach into open EPS containers.
Wear non-static clothing and conductive footwear.
