Plastic pellet dust is the industrial residue from the handling, grinding or processing of plastic pellets that is not used in plastic product manufacturing operations and therefore does not fall within the scope of the plastic pellets definition in this Regulation. The generation of such dust is difficult to avoid but can be minimised. Such dust should be extracted by means of filters or catchment devices as a health and safety measure at work.
