The use of hazardous substances and preparations requires companies to have a Safety Data Sheet (SDS). It is the main communication tool throughout the supply chain.
The conformity of an SDS is subject to numerous rules. When writing it, it must include general information but also information that is very specific to your case and your uses. In addition, it must be translated into as many languages as the countries in which it is made available.
The SDS is the central document for the management of your products. Risk management for HSE, procurement strategy for buyers, information for customs and poison control centres and the DREAL (regional directorate for the environment, development and housing)... It is essential that the information provided complies with REACH regulations.
With compliant SDSs, you can avoid having your products blocked at customs and control your risks on site. In this webinar, discover the key points of an SDS in order to avoid the pitfalls when creating your document.
