    Hello all,

    My company is looking into getting some help for creating safety data sheets (CLP and GHS) whether that be through a training course or software or something similar.  Does anyone have any recommendations?

    Thank you!

    Hi there!

    This is a whole subset of regulatory knowledge and expertise - REACH, OSHA, CLP, GHS, etc. I'd first ask, what countries?

    If you have only a few SDSs and a few geographic regions, I would farm it out to a company that specializes in creating compliant SDSs. However, if you have many chemical products and want to have SDSs compliant in many regions, there are software packages out there that, with knowledge, you can use to create compliant SDSs.

    I have used ChemGes. This is flexible, has many countries' regulations and languages programmed in. It does take some GHS knowledge, but does the calculations and cut-offs for you.

    Good luck,
