Formaldehyde ChromAir Chemical Exposure Monitoring Badges

Formaldehyde ChromAir Chemical Exposure Monitoring Badges

Formaldehyde is a colorless gas with a pungent, suffocating odor. It is used as a fumigant, a sterilant, and as an industrial chemical in the manufacturing of resins for adhesives, plastics, coatings and fabrics. Formaldehyde is a potent irritant to eyes, nose and throat. The most common effects of low-level formaldehyde inhalation are eye, nose and upper respiratory irritation. Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen.

ChromAir Formaldehyde badges provide an immediate visual indication of exposure dose for formaldehyde. When exposed to formaldehyde, a color change forms, starting from the bottom cell, and then moving up each cell to the top cell. The highest cell with a color change indicates dose exposure level. ChromAir Formaldehyde badges are a simple, cost-effective solution for formaldehyde detection in the workplace.
