FAQs

What is the ChemAlert library?

ChemAlert has a library with hundreds of thousands of the most up-to-date manufacturer Safety Data Sheets.

Access to the full library of Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) immediately commences with the subscription license. This ensures compliance with the regulations to provide SDS access to all employees that are potentially exposed to hazardous chemicals.

If a client requires an SDS that is not already there, we can add this to the library, usually within 24 hours of request.

RMT maintains and updates this SDS library. The SDS date is displayed in red text in the ChemAlert Stock Management module. If the SDS is out of date, this is also recorded along with any known reasons.

Users can search the library to find specific SDS and their current validity.

If I get RMT to author an SDS on my behalf, do I have to disclose all ingredients?

Yes, in order to prepare a regulatory-compliant SDS we need to know the exact formulation (as much as possible). We will sign a non-disclosure agreement if required, and can advise what ingredients do not need to be disclosed on the SDS and/or ideal ingredient ranges to ensure the most appropriate classifications are displayed.

Why are there international and local SDSs in ChemAlert?

There are many SDSs from different countries. If a chemical is non-hazardous, an SDS is often not mandatory and so the importer may choose to use the international SDS to communicate additional information to the end user.

ChemAlert provides a global service and contains many local and international SDS. You can exclude SDSs from jurisdictions not relevant to you through Business Unit Preferences. Contact the ChemAlert Support team or phone +61 (0)8 9322 1711.

What makes an SDS compliant?

The manufacturer or distributor of a hazardous chemical must prepare a Safety Data Sheet for any hazardous chemical to be supplied to a workplace. A substance is considered hazardous if it meets one of the following criteria:

Has been classified as a hazardous substance by the manufacturer or importer in accordance with regional requirements.
Is classified as hazardous according to the criteria of the Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS).

Only SDSs prepared according to the GHS will be accepted in many jurisdictions and regions.

What do the ChemAlert Colour Ratings mean?

The ChemAlert Colour Rating system provides you with a visual indication of the hazard level a chemical represents for normal use.

Green rated chemicals pose a Low level of hazard for normal use
Amber rated chemicals pose a Moderate level of hazard for normal use
Red rated chemicals pose a High level of hazard for normal use.

In ChemAlert, click on the Colour Rating to display a detailed Colour Rating Guide.

Where is the RMT SaaS?

RMT develop and support ChemAlert and First Priority which we deliver through Software as a Service (SaaS) in Tier IV facilities. RMT own and control the hardware we host on which is located within NEXTDC data centres in Australia, engineered and constructed to the highest global standards.

How can I create a new SDS?

RMT writes new SDSs for chemical manufacturers around the world. An RMT authored SDS is written to the highest standard and complies with the relevant legislative standards.

If you are interested in using our SDS Authoring Service, please call us on +61 (0)8 9322 1711 or contact us.

How long will it take to add my product?

We aim to complete each singular chemical addition request within one (1) working day. If you have several SDSs per request, it may take longer. We will let you know an estimated completion date for large requests where it may take longer than a week to complete.

For urgent request please mark your email request as ‘Urgent’, or call us on +61 (0)8 9322 1711 to speak directly to our Science team.
