inomhusbruk

Inomhusbruk is a Swedish term used on product labels to indicate that the substance is intended for indoor use only. The designation is applied when the product can pose health risks to humans or pets, or environmental risks if released outdoors, or when its performance relies on controlled indoor conditions such as ventilation. It is commonly seen on paints, varnishes, certain cleaners, and some pest control products.

When a product bears inomhusbruk, users should apply it inside a well-ventilated area and follow the safety data sheet and label directions. Avoid use in unventilated rooms, near children or animals, and never mix with incompatible substances. After use, clean equipment properly and store the product indoors in its original container away from heat sources.

Storage and disposal: store indoors, sealed, at recommended temperatures; dispose of packaging and leftovers according to local regulations. The term reflects risk assessment and hazard communication practices in Sweden and the EU, but exact requirements vary by product and country. Examples include interior paints and varnishes, certain cleaners, and some indoor pest control products.
