SDS (Safety Data Sheet)

The Importance of a SDS?

While, usually, an SDS does not need to be supplied to the general public and therefore are not required for consumer products, it is always a good policy to have one for your products, hazardous or not.

Such SDS will provide much needed information like :

  • Potential labelling requirements
  • Transport classification
  • The presence of regulated components

Moreover, many international transporters or customs will request product’s SDS and the absence of a valid SDS may result in your products being held at customs or in a transporter’s warehouse.

How to Obtain a SDS?

Making a compliant SDS is complex and must be done using specialized software and a database with expensive license fees.
