Two mate employees in an industry producing plastic emulsions acquired contact dermatitis from preservatives. One was sensitized in both components in a preservative, i.e. 1,2‐benzisothiazolin‐3‐one and ethylene diamine. The other man acquired a contact allergy to 1,2‐benzisothiazolin‐3‐one and to another preservative, formaldehyde.
