Data Collection

Written by Gillian | 10. June 2019

Before using EcoOnline, companies spent a lot of time and resources constantly checking, rechecking and reviewing safety data sheets or as they were once called MSDS for information. EcoOnline has taken the manual process away from your staff and our managed service ensures all your SDS data is accurate and easily accessible when you need it most.

SDS Key Information

Our experienced data analysis team review each SDS to ensure it is correct for your region and key information is extracted from the SDS and added to your database such as:

  • Section 1 – Product details such as name and manufacturer
  • Section 2 – CLP/GHS Hazard information
  • Section 3 – Ingredient information
  • Section 9 – Physical and Chemical properties
  • Section 14 – Transport
  • Section 15 – Regulations
