Each safety data sheet (SDS) gathers information regarding risks, protection measures and first aid when using and manipulating chemicals.
They allow any user to know what behavior he has to adopt in case of an incident.

Each topic targets a specific category, thus allowing the user to quickly find the section corresponding to the necessary information. Once the information found, the user can act safe and securely!
