Risk Assessment
Antimony substances have been assessed over several decades by regulatory authorities and scientific bodies worldwide. These assessments have examined human health, environmental, and occupational risks associated with the manufacture, use and end-of-life management of antimony substances.
Waste and Environmental Restrictions
Decision 2000/532/EC, Decision 2003/33/EC, Directive and 2010/75/EU
Product Restrictions
Antimony has been evaluated by regulatory authorities worldwide for its use in consumer products and materials. A range of measures has been established to manage potential consumer exposure, including requirements relating to drinking water, food-contact materials, children's products and specific product categories.
Workplace Restrictions
Occupational exposure to antimony has been extensively evaluated by health authorities. Historical respiratory effects were associated with higher workplace dust exposures, while modern occupational hygiene measures and exposure limits have significantly reduced worker exposure.
