Safety data sheets (SDSs)


Classifications

Labels

Notification

Pesticide approval







Safety data sheets (SDSs)
  • SDSs generated for your products, complying with UK (HASAWA and CHIP), EU, ISO or US standards as required
  • Your suppliers’ SDSs checked for adequacy
  • Your existing SDSs updated or converted from non-EU formats
  • SDS management systems designed and installed (data-gathering, drafting, approval, distribution, tracking, updating procedures)
  • Independent advice on computerised SDS generation systems
  • World-wide information searching via bibliographic, on-line and CD databases, and findings evaluated by professional toxicologists, chemists and environmental scientists
Our SDSs do not: dump all known health effects in Section 3; quote every conceivable hazardous reaction found in the literature without considering its relevance; refer to foreign classifications, rules and standards; omit basic data in Section 9; over-use ‘suitable’, ‘appropriate’, ‘normal’ etc; fail to cover all of the transport modes, or confuse them; have inconsistent Sections 3, 11, 15.

Classifications

  • Your substances and preparations classified for supply
  • Your suppliers’ classifications checked
  • Independent advice on computer systems for supply classification
  • World-wide information searching via bibliographic, on-line and CD databases, and findings evaluated by professional toxicologists, chemists and environmental scientists
  • Scientific tests arranged where needed to provide data for classification
Did you know that if you use a bought-in substance or preparation as an ingredient in your product, and your ingredient supplier has mis-classified it, you might be mis-classifying your product too as a consequence?

Labels

  • Your substances and preparations labelled for supply
  • Your pesticide labels drafted for approval
  • Independent advice on computer systems for supply labelling
Did you know that the tendency to mix up EU supply labelling, UK road labelling, international road labelling and sea labelling requirements (all different) means that most labels are incorrect to some extent?

Notification

  • Dossiers on new substances prepared and notification submitted to competent authority of choice
  • World-wide information searching via bibliographic, on-line and CD databases, and findings evaluated by professional toxicologists, chemists and environmental scientists
  • Scientific tests arranged where needed to provide notification data
Did you know that if a substance not listed in EINECS or ELINCS (because it is newly-invented or new to the EU market) is to be supplied between EU Member States above certain amounts, a dossier of physical, chemical, toxicological and ecological data must be submitted to a competent authority and permission obtained?

Pesticide approval

  • Dossiers prepared and submitted on new pesticides (formulations and their ingredients), complete with reports, safety data sheets and proposed labels
  • World-wide information searching via bibliographic, on-line and CD databases, and findings evaluated by professional toxicologists, chemists and environmental scientists
  • Scientific tests arranged where needed to provide approval data
Did you know that pesticide approval requirements, labelling requirements and some hazard classifications differ between the UK and other EU Member States, and even within the UK there are big classification and labelling differences between pesticides and other chemicals?
