Are you ready to come and join our virtual classroom

Join our Yordas experts and learn more about ensuring SDS Compliance Within Your Supply Chain

The provision of a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is a legal requirement for all substances and mixtures meeting the criteria specified under REACH and CLP. SDS are an effective and well established method of conveying hazards and providing information on the safe use and mitigation of risks. REACH and CLP have introduced a number of new requirements with regards to, when and why an SDS must be supplied. This virtual classroom will guide you through the structure of an SDS, highlighting new requirements and enabling you to assess whether the SDS you distribute or receive from your suppliers are up-to-date and compliant with the applicable regulations.
