Abstract
An outbreak of acneiform eruptions occurred in 14 workers in a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) manufacturing factory. The cause was probably a combination of heat, high humidity and irritation from PVC powder. PVC slurry, scales and powder, to which the workers were exposed, were not comedogenic on rabbit ear. Lowering the temperature and humidity by airconditioning and improving ventilation, together with reduction of dust level at the workplaces, eliminated further outbreak's.
