"With the help of EcoOnline, we have better control over our safety data sheets, and thus also an easier job with risk assessment and substitution" 

- Knut Ø. Andreassen, Head of Industrial Protection and Security, PFSO

Read what Knut Ø. Andreassen, Head of Industrial Protection and Security, had to say about their experience with EcoOnline


From Paper to Online

"When we at Ekornes were looking for a solution to get better control of safety data sheets, we already had a program in which we could create safety data sheets. The problem was that few of our suppliers delivered to the standard that this program could cope with. That's why we had the safety data sheets mostly in paper version."

Better Control 

"When we switched to EcoOnline, we gained access to many of our suppliers' safety data sheets directly in the system. This allowed us to continuously have the most up to date safety data sheets. Being able to upload original safety data sheets from our suppliers in different formats is also a great advantage."

"With the help of EcoOnline, we have better control over our safety data sheets, and thus also an easier job with risk co-assessment and substitution. Distribution out to the individual departments has also become much easier and better. The various sharers always have access to the latest safety data sheets."
