GHS-compliant SDS authoring and global market localisation
Globally compliant SDS authoring covering all 16 sections per GHS and regional adaptations (OSHA HazCom, EU CLP, India GHS, China GB, Japan GHS). We deliver authoring, translation, version control, and downstream-user communication programmes.
A practical, phased delivery approach — from gap assessment through operational embedding — built around your regulatory context.
Characterise substance per CAS / EC number / IUPAC name; for mixture, build composition table with concentration ranges per OSHA HazCom / REACH Annex II / GHS Annex 4; align with supplier SDS reconciliation and regulatory database (ECHA, NLM).
Classify per GHS Rev. 10 / EU CLP Regulation 1272/2008 — physical (16 classes), health (10 classes), environmental (3 classes); apply mixture classification rules per Annex I; document classification rationale and bridging principles.
Author SDS sections per GHS / OSHA HCS 2012 — Section 1 (Identification), 2 (Hazards), 3 (Composition), 4 (First Aid), 5 (Firefighting), 6 (Accidental Release), 7 (Handling/Storage), 8 (Exposure/PPE), 9 (Physical/Chemical), 10-16 (Stability, Toxicology, Ecology, Disposal, Transport, Regulatory, Other).
For REACH-registered substances, author Exposure Scenario annex per Annex VI Cl.10 — use descriptors (SU, PC, PROC, ERC), exposure controls, DNEL / PNEC; align with ECHA Chesar tool and ESCom standard phrases.
Develop SDS variants per jurisdiction — OSHA HCS (US), CLP (EU), WHMIS 2015 (Canada), JIS Z 7253 (Japan), NOM-018 (Mexico), GB/T 16483 (China); maintain master + local language translations; align with REACH Article 31.
Design SDS document management — version control, change history, distribution to downstream users (REACH Cl.32 obligation), retention period (typically 10 years post-discontinuation); align with corporate product stewardship and ERP integration.
