Safety
Safety Profile
Methyl Tiglate is classified as an irritant (Xi) and irritating to skin (R 38) according to European information, indicating potential irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Its maximum recommended usage level in fragrance concentrates is 0.6000%. While the broader category of 'methyl esters of higher fatty acids' is deemed non-sensitizing, Methyl Tiglate specifically presents a moderate irritancy profile and is also labeled with GHS hazard statements such as H226 (Flammable liquid and vapor).
