Are You Ready for the Change?


The beginning of big changes to chemicals, labeling and manufacturing are coming shortly. The first phase is due by December 1, 2013. The formally known MSDS sheets will now be known as SDS sheets and major changes in unified labeling of chemical products under specific categories will soon go into effect worldwide.
