How to create and manage your Safety Data Sheets

This will open a page displaying the list of materials already added to your account.

Click on the "Add New" button located in the top right corner and choose either "Add Material (SDS)" or "Add Section Header."

If adding a material, you will have the option to upload an image for the material. This allows you to provide a visual representation of the material, enhancing clarity and recognition of the material.

Safe Handling Instructions & Details

Here, you can add all the safe handling instructions from the Manufacturer or any other essential information to promote safe practices. By providing the necessary details, such as classification, revision date, and other relevant information, you ensure that everyone accessing the material has a clear understanding of its properties and handling requirements.

Locations
