MSDS Material Safety Data Sheet
What is MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet)?
The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), also known as the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) or extended Safety Data Sheets (eSDS) in the context of the European REACH Regulation, is an essential document that accompanies a wide range of chemically modified substances, mixtures, materials, and industrial waste. It serves as a crucial information source for various applications, including both everyday products and industrial manufacturing processes.
In the realm of manufacturing, MSDS covers chemicals and chemically modified substances derived from natural sources. For everyday products, it encompasses goods that incorporate chemical substances, such as powders, gels, varnishes, paints, and creams.
Material Safety Data Sheet is mandatory within the EU trade, transportation, custom clearance, storage, recycling, CE certification, and other permit obtainment processes. It provides comprehensive guidelines for secure substance handling, usage, storage, and disposal, especially for substances that carry potential hazards.
Abbreviation SDS (Safety Data Sheet) and eSDS (extended Safety Data Sheets) is used in European REACH Regulation. In this regard, the precise name of the document for European market is SDS (Safety Data Sheet) или eSDS (extended Safety Data Sheets). When supplying to the Global market – MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet).

Under the REACH Regulation, the requirements for Safety Data Sheets are carefully stipulated.
Manufacturers/sellers of mixtures or substances are mandated to provide MSDS under certain criteria:
• If the mixture or substance meets hazardous classification criteria as per Directives 67/548/EEC or 1999/45/EC;
• If the mixture or substance qualifies as persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) or very persistent and very bioaccumulative (vPvB) in line with Annex XIII criteria of the REACH Regulation;
• If the mixture is composed of substances that are proposed for inclusion in Annex XIV of the REACH Regulation (authorized chemicals);
• If an individual substance within the mixture has a concentration of ≥ 1% w/w for non-gaseous mixtures and ≥ 0.2% by volume for gaseous mixtures, posing human health or environmental hazards;
• If the mixture or substance, proposed for inclusion in Annex XIV of the REACH Regulation, has a concentration of ≥ 0.1% w/w in non-gaseous preparations;
• If the mixture or substance is subject to EU-established exposure limits in occupational environments.

Please feel free to reach out to us for further inquiries or to initiate the process of obtaining your MSDS or SDS documents. Your safety is our priority, and we are here to assist you every step of the way.
Creating/ Updating MSDS in compliance with REACH and CLP Regulation in English
MSDS compilation requirements: chemical product composition (CAS numbers of chemical products); information on physical and chemical properties of the product; information on the supplier company.
If some information is missing, indicate this fact when submitting information.
Pre-application form for MSDS compilation >>
MSDS preparation takes 2-5 working days.
Final version of MSDS is provided in form pdf и doc. The MSDS is not stamped or signed. MSDS are provided to the customers by e-mail.
MSDS Example >>
Manufacturer/ Seller must update MSDS in the following cases:
• immediately after receiving new information that affects the risk management tools, or new information about the hazards presented;
• in case of setting new restrictions.
MSDS is provided in the official State language of the country where the chemical/ mixture/ product is supplied to the market.
