FAQs
Some jurisdictions, like the USA do not require all hazardous ingredients to be specified for the purpose of commercial-in-confidence trade secrets. Others, like Australia, require all hazardous ingredients to be listed and include ingredients that have an exposure standard with a concentration above 1%. To protect formulas, manufacturers are permitted to specify concentration ranges instead of exact percentages. However, it is best practice to be as precise as possible.

You are required to have the SDS for the specific product you use. The supplier details on the SDS should match the supplier details on the label of the product.
A ChemAlert report does not replace an SDS, it is an independent verification which is vital given the known error rate of SDS content:
- Instant visual indicators such as colour ratings, PPE icons, pictograms and DG diamonds
- Standardised formatting
- Translations into other languages
- Customisability to include sections that are important to you
- Additional product research by a team of qualified Scientists.
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.
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 If the SDS is out of date, this is also recorded along with any known reasons.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.
The files are likely being blocked by the web browser and the web browser may need to be configured to allow the multiple downloads.
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.
