Toronto, Canada | June 11 2025,<\/strong> EcoOnline<\/a>, a leading global provider of safety and sustainability software, has bolstered its safety data sheet (SDS) authoring software<\/a> with new AI-powered Smart Extraction. <\/strong>This chemical safety enhancement streamlines and simplifies the documentation process for firms creating SDS.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Growing concerns, legal obligations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the U.S. and Canada, chemical safety<\/a> regulations such as OSHA\u2019s Hazard Communication Standard and WHMIS require that employers and suppliers provide clear, compliant SDS for hazardous substances. Organisations that manufacture or distribute chemicals are therefore under growing pressure to ensure their SDS documentation is accurate, accessible and up to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without automation tools creating and publishing an SDS can be costly and time-consuming, often taking hours, if not days, to complete per document. EcoOnline\u2019s SDS Authoring software, powered by Almego, removes these complexities and helps companies take control of the SDS authoring process with ISO 9001-certified software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AI-powered SDS Smart Extraction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Extracting important information from supplier SDS documents manually requires significant effort and is prone to errors. Keeping this information up to date also requires considerable effort. With the new Smart Extraction, users can simply upload a PDF of their SDS, and by applying state-of-the-art, AI-powered Natural Language Processing (NLP), the software will automatically extract the required data from sections 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 13 and 14 of the document. The user can review the extracted data for accuracy, and then the software will create substances as raw materials or mixtures, along with dropdown values and data library entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
