CoSHH

There are a range of adhesives available at Cynffig and whilst steps have been taken to remove the use of toxic and hazardous materials from use within the D&T department at Cynffig Comprehensive, there remain a number of solvents, oils, chemicals and lubricants in-use which are covered under CoSHH regulations. These chemicals are only used by qualified and competent D&T personnel. 

The only adhesives students are permitted to use are water-based PVA wood glue, UHU and Pritt glue sticks and hot melt glue. 

More details are available in the CoSHH section here

All adhesives are kept in a lockable CoSHH cabinet in room 1G2 and another in the general purpose workshop.
