A Product Alert is a message from the Scientist who reviewed the Safety Data Sheet when it was added or updated on ChemAlert. Alerts are used to advise end users of potential issues with the SDS or explain significant discrepancies between the SDS and the ChemAlert Research Report.
Product Obsolete: This means that the product is no longer manufactured, supplied, or distributed. For any product remaining on site, it is then acceptable to use the latest available SDS. If the product is brought back into circulation by the manufacturer, RMT will review the product's status on ChemAlert.
SDS Discontinued: This means the product is no longer classified as hazardous and the manufacturer is no longer supporting an SDS for the product.
Discontinued: This means that RMT is not currently maintaining the SDS, typically because despite repeated requests, we are unable to source an updated SDS for the product. An Alert will exist for the product outlining the reason(s) why it has been discontinued.
